Is it possible to speed up a complex Java application by more than 10% in a few simple steps without changing code? Yes, if you configure your Java VM correctly. One of the most resource-intensive components of a Java VM is the garbage collector (GC) which automatically reclaims unreferenced objects and makes their memory available … Continue reading Read the Dynatrace APM blog→

Florian Redlinger-Pohn, a student from the HTL Leonding, a secondary technical school, just spent two weeks at our lab to work on his thesis describing a tool suite for model-driven software engineering. His work has been supervised by Gerhard Gehrer and Paul Grünbacher.
Abstract: Understanding and tracking down memory-related performance problems, such as long garbage collection times and memory leaks, is a tedious task in large and complex applications. Memory profilers can support developers in this task by recording detailed traces of the application’s memory behavior which can then be analyzed offline. Unfortunately, these traces can become huge, … Continue reading @PPPJ’15→
