Memory footprints of threads in a process

[Ruhi Akhtar]

I am running java process under tomcat on linux. The java process comprises of multiple threads. I would like to track the memory consumption of threads under a particular java process. Is there any OS utility to track the memory of these individual threads.

suggestion appreciated.

Thanks,
Akhtar

What does "memory consumption of threads" mean to you? The amount of memory used by individual Thread stacks is small compared to the amount of memory used for Java objects.

I am getting java.lang.OutOfMemory errors and I am guessing that over a dozen threads in the process one of the thread is leaking. You are right that Threads stack is small. I should rather try to find out the memory consumption of the java objects in individual threads.
