JVM options turning

User_NGYBL

Hello,

JVM-memory.options for one of our apps has the following:

#Use G1GC

-XX:+UseG1GC

#Minimum heap size

-XX:InitialHeapSize=6g

#Maximum heap size

-XX:MaxHeapSize=6g

#Mentioned in App JVM options guide

-XX:+AggressiveOpts

-XX:MaxGCPauseMillis=500

-XX:+DisableExplicitGC

-XX:+UseStringDeduplication

-XX:+ParallelRefProcEnabled

-XX:MaxMetaspaceSize=256m

-XX:MaxTenuringThreshold=1

#GC log formatting

-Xlog:gc*,safepoint,age*,ergo*:file=/opt/app/log/gc-%p-%t.log:tags,uptime,time,level::filecount=10,filesize=50m

which is running on java version "11.0.13" 2021-10-19 LTS

However, off late there's hasn't been any let go of memory, until the app gets manually restarted. Before restart..

[[email protected] log]$ free -h

       total    used    free   shared buff/cache  available

Mem:      7.8G    5.7G    652M    393M    1.4G    1.4G

Swap:     2.0G    520M    1.5G

After restart..

[[email protected] log]$ free -h

       total    used    free   shared buff/cache  available

Mem:      7.8G    2.8G    3.4G    401M    1.6G    4.3G

Swap:     2.0G    158M    1.8G

Are there any crucial flags missing in the JVM memory options file for this app to be more sustainable without creating memory related alerts?

TIA,
