Local fix

Problem summary

  • If the JVM application is very large, the JIT may try to compile
    very many methods exceeding the limit imposed on total code
    cache space. When that happens the compilation activity stops
    and methods that couldn't be fit into the code caches continue
    to run as interpreted. Depending on how many many are forced to
    continue execution as interpreted and how often they are
    executed performance can suffer to various degrees.
    

Problem conclusion

  • This defect will be fixed in:
    7.0.0 SR6
    6.0.1 SR7
    6.0.0 SR15
    .
    The JVM provided an option to allow users to increase the limit
    imposed on total code cache space: -Xcodecachetotal<NNN>
