Theory on Harmonics In Java-based applications
I discovered yesterday that the heap memory usage of a certain java application behaves like a triangular waveform and thus can be calculated using RMS values to determine the HEAP at any point in time during runtime. Thus, the frequency of the heap cycles can be described in hertz and heap as Heap-RMS. Having known this behavior, the detection of heap memory leak is possible. Consider a server at no load for a significant amount of time is tested for memory leak. The integral of all d(h)/dt from h(i) to h(f) from t(0) to t(f) must be equal to zero. Even a small delta will indicate a creaping memory leak
The calculation will be shown later.
