Memory Analyzer

Memory Analyzer helps you analyze Java™ dump files, Java heap dump files, and system dump files.

This tool can analyze dump files that contain millions of objects, providing the following information:
  • The retained sizes of objects.
  • Processes that are preventing the garbage collector from collecting objects.
  • A report to automatically extract leak suspects.
This tool is based on the Eclipse Memory Analyzer (MAT) project, and uses the IBM® Diagnostic Tool Framework for Java (DTFJ) feature to enable the processing of dump files from IBM virtual machines.

Memory Analyzer is provided as an IBM Support Assistant (ISA) add-on. For information about installing and getting started with the add-on, see: https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/java/jdk/tools/memoryanalyzer/.

Further information about Memory Analyzer is available in IBM Documentation.
