Notifiche di Garbage Collection
In alcune situazioni un'operazione completa di Garbage Collection (cioè di generazione 2) eseguita da Common Language Runtime può influire negativamente sulle prestazioni. Può essere un problema soprattutto con i server che elaborano grandi volumi di richieste. In questo caso, una lunga procedura di Garbage Collection può provocare un timeout delle richieste. Per evitare che venga eseguita una raccolta completa durante un periodo critico, è possibile essere informati che sta per iniziare una Garbage Collection completa e quindi intraprendere un'azione per reindirizzare il carico di lavoro a un'altra istanza del server. È anche possibile indurre manualmente una raccolta, a condizione che l'istanza del server corrente non sia necessaria per elaborare le richieste.
Il metodo RegisterForFullGCNotification registra la generazione di una notifica quando il runtime rileva che sta per essere eseguita una Garbage Collection completa. Esistono due parti per questa notifica: quando sta per essere eseguita la Garbage Collection completa e quando la Garbage Collection completa è terminata.
Avviso
Quando l'elemento di configurazione <gcConcurrent> è abilitato, WaitForFullGCComplete può restituire NotApplicable
GCNotificationStatus se il processo GC completo è stato eseguito come GC in background.
Per determinare quando è stata generata una notifica, usare i metodi WaitForFullGCApproach e WaitForFullGCComplete. Questi metodi vengono in genere usati in un ciclo while
per ottenere continuamente un'enumerazione GCNotificationStatus che indica lo stato della notifica. Se tale valore è Succeeded, è possibile procedere nel modo seguente:
In risposta a una notifica ottenuta con il metodo WaitForFullGCApproach, è possibile reindirizzare il carico di lavoro e probabilmente indurre manualmente una raccolta.
In risposta a una notifica ottenuta con il metodo WaitForFullGCComplete, è possibile rendere l'istanza corrente del server disponibile per elaborare di nuovo le richieste. È anche possibile raccogliere informazioni. È ad esempio è possibile usare il metodo CollectionCount per registrare il numero di raccolte.
I metodi WaitForFullGCApproach e WaitForFullGCComplete sono progettati per interagire. L'uso di uno senza l'altro può produrre risultati imprevisti.
Garbage Collection completa
Il runtime genera una Garbage Collection completa quando si verifica uno degli scenari seguenti:
È stata promossa memoria sufficiente alla generazione 2 per generare la raccolta di generazione 2 successiva.
È stata promossa memoria sufficiente all'heap degli oggetti grandi per generare la raccolta di generazione 2 successiva.
Viene eseguita l'escalation di una raccolta di generazione 1 a una raccolta di generazione 2 a causa di altri fattori.
Le soglie specificate nel metodo RegisterForFullGCNotification si applicano ai primi due scenari. Nel primo scenario, tuttavia, non si riceverà sempre la notifica nel periodo di tempo proporzionale ai valori della soglia specificati, per due motivi:
Il runtime non controlla ogni allocazione di oggetti piccoli (per motivi di prestazioni).
Sole le raccolte di generazione 1 promuovono la memoria alla generazione 2.
Nel terzo scenario è incerto anche quando si riceverà la notifica. Anche se non è una garanzia, è un modo utile per ridurre gli effetti di una Garbage Collection completa non opportuna reindirizzando le richieste durante questo intervallo di tempo o inducendo manualmente la raccolta quando può essere gestita meglio.
Parametri delle soglie di notifica
Il metodo RegisterForFullGCNotification presenta due parametri per specificare i valori di soglia degli oggetti di generazione 2 e dell'heap degli oggetti grandi. Quando tali valori sono soddisfatti, verrà generata una notifica di Garbage Collection. Nella tabella seguente vengono descritti i parametri.
Parametro | Descrizione |
---|---|
maxGenerationThreshold |
Numero compreso tra 1 e 99 che specifica se la notifica deve essere generata in base agli oggetti promossi alla generazione 2. |
largeObjectHeapThreshold |
Numero compreso tra 1 e 99 che specifica quando generare la notifica in base agli oggetti allocati nell'heap degli oggetti grandi. |
Se si specifica un valore troppo elevato, è molto probabile che si riceverà una notifica, ma il tempo di attesa prima che il runtime causi una raccolta potrebbe essere troppo lungo. Se si induce manualmente una raccolta, potrebbero essere recuperati più oggetti di quanti ne verrebbero recuperati se fosse il runtime a causare la raccolta.
Se si specifica un valore troppo basso, il runtime potrebbe causare la raccolta prima di aver avuto tempo sufficiente per ricevere la notifica.
Esempio
Descrizione
Nell'esempio seguente un gruppo di server gestisce le richieste Web in ingresso. Per simulare il carico di lavoro dell'elaborazione delle richieste, vengono aggiunte matrici di byte a una raccolta List<T>. Ogni server registra una notifica di Garbage Collection e quindi avvia un thread nel metodo utente WaitForFullGCProc
per monitorare costantemente l'enumerazione GCNotificationStatus restituita dai metodi WaitForFullGCApproach e WaitForFullGCComplete.
I metodi WaitForFullGCApproach e WaitForFullGCComplete chiamano i rispettivi metodi utente di gestione eventi quando viene generata una notifica:
OnFullGCApproachNotify
Questo metodo chiama il metodo utente
RedirectRequests
, che indica al server di accodamento delle richieste di sospendere l'invio di richieste al server. Questa azione viene simulata impostando la variabile a livello di classebAllocate
sufalse
in modo che non vengano allocati altri oggetti.Viene quindi chiamato il metodo utente
FinishExistingRequests
per completare l'elaborazione delle richieste al server in sospeso. Questa azione viene simulata cancellando la raccolta List<T>.Viene infine indotta una Garbage Collection perché il carico di lavoro è leggero.
OnFullGCCompleteNotify
Questo metodo chiama il metodo utente
AcceptRequests
per riprendere l'accettazione delle richieste perché il server non è più soggetto a una Garbage Collection completa. Questa azione viene simulata impostando la variabilebAllocate
sutrue
in modo che sia possibile riprendere l'aggiunta degli oggetti alla raccolta List<T>.
