java8中的默认垃圾回收器(GC)

一 概述

GC(Garbage Collection)，在程序运行过程中内存空间是有限的，为了更好的的使用有限的内存空间，GC会将不再使用的对象清除然后将其所占用的内存释放出来。

触发GC的条件

1. 程序调用System.gc的时候触发GC。

/**
    * Runs the garbage collector.
    * <p>
    * Calling the <code>gc</code> method suggests that the Java Virtual
    * Machine expend effort toward recycling unused objects in order to
    * make the memory they currently occupy available for quick reuse.
    * When control returns from the method call, the Java Virtual
    * Machine has made a best effort to reclaim space from all discarded
    * objects.
    * <p>
    * The call <code>System.gc()</code> is effectively equivalent to the
    * call:
    * <blockquote><pre>
    * Runtime.getRuntime().gc()
    * </pre></blockquote>
    *
    * @see     java.lang.Runtime#gc()
    */
   public static void gc() {
       Runtime.getRuntime().gc();
   }

2. 系统自身决定GC的触发时机，主要根据Eden区和From Space区的内存大小来决定，当内存大小不足时，则会启动GC线程（Daemon线程）并停止应用线程。

二 查看Java8的默认GC

1.cmd命令行查看Java8的GC

java -XX:+PrintCommandLineFlags -version

结果如下：

-XX:InitialHeapSize=132397312 // JVM默认初始化堆大小
-XX:MaxHeapSize=2118356992 //JVM堆的默认最大值
-XX:+PrintCommandLineFlags
-XX:+UseCompressedClassPointers
-XX:+UseCompressedOops
-XX:-UseLargePagesIndividualAllocation
-XX:+UseParallelGC //Java8使用的GC类型
java version "1.8.0_20" //使用的java版本
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_20-b26)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.20-b23, mixed mode)

结果分析：由结果可以看出Java8的GC情况是：-XX:+UseParallelGC，即Parallel Scavenge（新生代） + Parallel Old（老生代），实际上几个主流Java版本的GC情况如下：

• jdk1.7 默认垃圾收集器Parallel Scavenge（新生代【标记-复制算法】）+Parallel Old（老年代【标记整理算法】）

• jdk1.8 默认垃圾收集器Parallel Scavenge（新生代）+Parallel Old（老年代）

• jdk1.9 默认垃圾收集器G1【从局部(两个Region之间)来看是基于"标记&mdash;复制"算法实现，从整体来看是基于"标记-整理"算法实现】

jdk1.7 默认垃圾收集器Parallel Scavenge（新生代【标记-复制算法】）+Parallel Old（老年代【标记整理算法】）jdk1.8 默认垃圾收集器Parallel Scavenge（新生代）+Parallel Old（老年代）jdk1.9 默认垃圾收集器G1【从局部(两个Region之间)来看是基于"标记&mdash;复制"算法实现，从整体来看是基于"标记-整理"算法实现】

2.cmd命令行查看Java8的GC详细情况

java -XX:+PrintGCDetails -version

结果如下：

java version "1.8.0_20"

Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.20-b23, mixed mode)

 class space    used 244K, capacity 384K, committed 384K, reserved 1048576K

在Java中使用Metaspace（元空间）而移除了PermGenspace（永久区）。也就意味着这部分内存空间将全部移除。

设置JVM的参数PermSize和MaxPermSize时会被忽略并给出警告。

但是类的元数据信息（metadata）还在，只是不再存储在连续的堆空间中，而是移动到了被称为"Metaspace（元空间）"的本地内存（Native memory）中。
