Impact on performance because of "-XX:+UsePerfData" setting
We would like to monitor the usage of various generations (Young, permanent, old/tenured) of Java heap in our application server. To do this monitoring SUN has provided a tool called "Visual GC" and this tool mandates the use of "-XX:+UsePerfData". We would like to know if we have any performance impact if I use this setting. We are using IBM Websphere 5.1. Also could you please let me know if there is any other tool like "VisualGC" which will allow me to monitor various parts of GC with ease.

Visual GC with IBM VM?
Please forgive my ignorance, but does that mean that
1) WebSphere can run on a Sun VM now, or does that mean
2) that "Visual GC" can run with non-SUN VMs (IBM in that
case)?
3) both
4) none of the above
I don't know about Visual GC and I haven't used WebSphere
for quite some time now (it used to run on IBM VM only in may days). Just curious ...
Best regards,
Stefan

I am running websphere on IBM VM only. Visual GC is working on IBM VM also.

We have used for years the -verbosegc trace and all of the variations (including the one that shows the generations) and it doesn't seem to impact in the performance of the JVM.

Thirumal - Using this option in Production is not advisable as the JVM will be busy making the Performance data available for the tool "VisualGC" which primarily connects to the server having this performance data and shows the data in a Visual Form.
This is same as enabling a Profiler in Production.
Try this in a staging environment and simulate with the load same as that of Production.

Brian Goetz continues to lift the lid and peak into the inner workings of Java in Java Urban Performance Legends. In this article he exposes the fallacy behind some of the more common performance myths found in the annals of the JVM.

Looks like today AJAX concept have several interpretations. We can distinguish different approaches of AJAX integration. Can they co-exist within the same application? Can we talk about layered AJAX integration?

Artima has published a short article describing the Design-Time API for JavaBeans, which was recently approved as JSR 273. This API promises to bring VB-like ease to Java development, but may face a cultural bias among Java developers who tend to think more in terms of class libraries than components.

There is plenty of speculation today regarding a potential buyout of Sun Microsystems by Scott McNealy and Silver Lake Partners. How would privatization of Sun affect Java?
