Thread Dump Analysis - Several Scavengers - By fastThread

Thread Dump is a snapshot of the status of all the threads at a particular time. Thread dumps are vital artefacts to diagnose CPU spikes, deadlocks, poor response times, memory problems, unresponsive applications, and other system problems. Thread Dump helps to find out what every thread in the JVM is doing at a particular point in time. A common phenomenon is once a high CPU usage is observed then thread dump analysis is required.

In some previous posts, you came to know about Athlete, Atherosclerosis, Treadmill, Traffic Jam, All Roads Lead to Rome, Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI), Stock Ticker and Additives Pattern. Today, you will see how too many GC thread may also impact the performance. The GC thread count also depends upon the type of GC used in the system. Such a pattern is named as Several Scavengers Pattern because too many cleaners do not provide benefit to clean a garbage-free area. A simple and descriptive article published in the fastThread blog on this thread pattern along with the example. Refer the link. 👇
