Notifiche di Garbage Collection
In alcune situazioni un'operazione completa di Garbage Collection eseguita da Common Language Runtime può influire negativamente sulle prestazioni. Questo può rappresentare un problema in modo particolare con server che elaborano grandi volumi di richieste. In questo caso, un processo di Garbage Collection lungo può provocare un timeout delle richieste. Per impedire che si verifichi un'operazione completa di Garbage Collection durante un periodo critico, è possibile ricevere una notifica quando questa operazione sta per essere eseguita e intraprendere quindi un'azione per reindirizzare il carico di lavoro a un'altra istanza del server. È anche possibile forzare una raccolta, purché l'istanza del server corrente non richieda l'elaborazione di richieste.

Questa funzionalità è disponibile solo se l'operazione di Garbage Collection in modalità simultanea è disabilitata.Per impostazione predefinita, tale operazione è attivata a meno che non si utilizzi un ambiente di hosting e l'host abbia modificato la configurazione.L'operazione di Garbage Collection in modalità simultanea non è disponibile quando si utilizza la Garbage Collection su server.Questa funzionalità non supporta l'operazione di Garbage Collection in modalità simultanea perché mentre tale operazione è in corso sono consentite allocazioni di memoria.Per informazioni su come disabilitare l'operazione di Garbage Collection in modalità simultanea, vedere l'impostazione di runtime <gcConcurrent>. |
Il metodo RegisterForFullGCNotification esegue la registrazione per la generazione di una notifica quando il runtime riconosce che sta per verificarsi un'operazione completa di Garbage Collection. Questa notifica è composta da due parti: quando sta per verificarsi l'operazione completa di Garbage Collection e quando tale operazione è stata completata.
Per determinare quando è stata generata una notifica, utilizzare i metodi WaitForFullGCApproach e WaitForFullGCComplete. In genere, questi metodi vengono utilizzati in un ciclo while per ottenere continuamente un'enumerazione GCNotificationStatus che mostra lo stato della notifica. Se il valore è Succeeded, è possibile effettuare le operazioni seguenti:
In risposta a una notifica ottenuta con il metodo WaitForFullGCApproach, è possibile reindirizzare il carico di lavoro e possibilmente forzare una raccolta.
In risposta a una notifica ottenuta con il metodo WaitForFullGCComplete, è possibile rendere disponibile l'istanza del server corrente per elaborare nuovamente le richieste. È anche possibile raccogliere informazioni. Ad esempio, è possibile utilizzare il metodo CollectionCount per registrare il numero di raccolte.
I metodi WaitForFullGCApproach e WaitForFullGCComplete sono progettati per essere utilizzati insieme. L'utilizzo di uno senza l'altro può produrre risultati imprevisti.
Operazione completa di Garbage Collection
Il runtime provoca un'operazione completa di Garbage Collection se si verifica uno degli scenari seguenti:
Una quantità sufficiente di memoria passa nella generazione 2 per generare la successiva raccolta di generazione 2.
Una quantità sufficiente di memoria passa nell'heap degli oggetti grandi per generare la successiva raccolta di generazione 2.
Viene eseguita l'escalation di una raccolta di generazione 1 in una raccolta di generazione 2 a causa di altri fattori.
Le soglie specificate nel metodo RegisterForFullGCNotification si applicano ai primi due scenari. Tuttavia, nel primo scenario non si riceverà sempre la notifica nel momento proporzionale ai valori di soglia specificati, per due motivi:
Il runtime non controlla ogni allocazione di oggetti piccoli (per motivi di prestazioni).
Solo le raccolte di generazione 1 passano la memoria nella generazione 2.
Anche il terzo scenario contribuisce ad aumentare l'incertezza sul momento in cui si riceverà la notifica. Anche se non è garantita, questa soluzione si dimostra utile per attenuare gli effetti di un'operazione completa di Garbage Collection inopportuna, reindirizzando le richieste durante questo periodo o forzando la raccolta in un momento più favorevole.
Parametri di soglia delle notifiche
Il metodo RegisterForFullGCNotification include due parametri per specificare i valori di soglia degli oggetti di generazione 2 e dell'heap degli oggetti grandi. Quando vengono raggiunti tali valori, dovrebbe essere generata una notifica di Garbage Collection. Nella tabella seguente vengono descritti tali parametri.
Parametro |
Descrizione |
|---|---|
maxGenerationThreshold |
Numero compreso tra 1 e 99 che specifica quando generare la notifica in base agli oggetti passati 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 alto, esiste un'elevata probabilità che si riceverà una notifica, ma il periodo di attesa potrebbe essere eccessivamente lungo prima che il runtime provochi una raccolta. Se si forza una raccolta, è possibile che venga recuperato un numero di oggetti maggiore rispetto a quelli che verrebbero recuperati se la raccolta viene provocata dal runtime.
Se si specifica un valore eccessivamente basso, il runtime può provocare la raccolta prima che sia trascorso un periodo di tempo sufficiente per ricevere una 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 un insieme List<T>. Ogni server esegue la registrazione per una notifica di Garbage Collection, quindi avvia un thread sul metodo utente WaitForFullGCProc per controllare continuamente 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 situazione viene simulata impostando la variabile a livello di classe bAllocate su false in modo che non vengano più allocati oggetti.
Quindi, viene chiamato il metodo utente FinishExistingRequests per completare l'elaborazione delle richieste in sospeso al server. Questa situazione viene simulata cancellando l'insieme List<T>.
Infine, viene forzata un'operazione di Garbage Collection perché il carico di lavoro è ridotto.
OnFullGCCompleteNotify
Questo metodo chiama il metodo utente AcceptRequests per riprendere ad accettare richieste, perché il server non è più soggetto a un'operazione completa di Garbage Collection. Questa azione viene simulata impostando la variabile bAllocate su true in modo che gli oggetti possano riprendere a essere aggiunti List<T>.
Il codice seguente contiene il metodo Main dell'esempio.
