Analyzer java-class-unload

java-class-unload: Java Class Unloading.

Name

java-class-unload - Java Class Unloading

This analyzer shows whether HotSpot actually reclaimed classes and class-loader metadata. It produces bar charts for unload events, reclaimed class loaders, callbacks whose class names were readable, and the most frequently observed unloaded class names. These are cleanup signals: they indicate that old class-loader state was reclaimed, rather than merely that new classes were loaded.
