Monitor Memory for Potential JVM Leaks
Use the Node dashboard to identify the memory leak. A possible memory leak is indicated by a growing trend in the heap as well as the old/tenured generation memory pool.
An object is automatically marked as a potentially leaking object when it shows a positive and steep growth slope.
The Automatic Memory Leak dashboard shows:
- Collection Size—The number of elements in a collection.
- Potentially Leaking—Potentially leaking collections display as red. You should start diagnostic sessions on potentially leaking objects.
- Status—Indicates if a diagnostic session has been started on an object.
- Collection Size Trend—A positive and steep growth slope indicates a potential memory leak.
If no captured collections display, ensure that you have the correct configuration for detecting potential memory leaks.
