Hi Rahul. Welcome to the Ranch!

Almost. "Instance variable marked static" is actually a contradiction, because if it's marked static it isn't an instance variable (because it doesn't belong to instances of the class). But yes, a class variable is a static variable.

Thank you mr mathew .
 
I agree. Here's the link: http://ej-technologies/jprofiler - if it wasn't for jprofiler, we would need to run our stuff on 16 servers instead of 3.
