Problem summary

  • Problem occurs when a concurrent garbage collect coincides with
    a lot of class loading with -Xgcpolicy:metronome
    

Problem conclusion

  • This APAR will be fixed in the following Java Releases:
       7    SR7       (7.0.7.0)
       6 R1 SR8       (6.1.8.0)
    .
    We should no longer OOM if we class load and concurrent GC at
    the same time.
