Pass JVM arguments to JMH

问题

I have some JMH benchmarks that I'm trying to analyze. I want to enable GC logging to see how much garbage is being generated, but I can't figure out how to pass JVM arguments. I know JMH runs benchmarks in a forked JVM, so it's not immediately obvious to me how to do this. I'm using SBT.

回答1:

If I read sbt-jmh docs right, it passes the application options to JMH runner with jmh:run .... So, having that JMH command line accepts --jvmArgs "...", I would try to do jmh:run --jvmArgs "-XX:+PrintGCDetails". Or, as @apangin mentions, add @Fork(jvmArgsAppend = "-XX:+PrintGCDetails").

But for your particular use case -- "see how much garbage is generated" -- it might be even better idea to use a bundled GC profiler, activated with -prof gc. See the example at JMHSample_35_Profilers.java#l71.

回答2:

Use @Fork annotation:

@Benchmark
@Fork(jvmArgsAppend = "-XX:+PrintGCDetails")
public void someBenchmark() {
    ...
}

Note that JVM arguments passed to JMH are also propagated to forked benchmarks.
