Posted a question on SO a few minutes ago. It seems like they are downvoting questions before reading them. If after reading the question it appears legit and written according to all the rules - they return the upvote.

Wtf dude...

We need a new, better Stack Overflow. Preferably with blackjack and hookers, but I'm not picky.

that’s because they ❤️ you

Got a link at all? Can't promise to answer, but I can maybe counteract a DV...

@AlmondSauce Thanks, it got upvoted back to <0> :)

@AlmondSauce thanks :)

@vane Xms, not Xmx :)

EDIT: lemme scan through that page again. I may have missed things the first time

EDIT2: Yupp, that's still Xms I'm talking about :) And the JVM has not been rebooted, meaning the GC implementation has not been changed. Not to mention that having a S0/S1 of 3GB each sounds a bit extreme :)

@netikras my mistake https://stackoverflow.com/questions...

@vane That is also a different thing. See my comment under the SO question :)

@netikras yeah but it might be not java related topic as you use many layers, jvm is only sending the memory allocation request also there is possible free memory system call so under heavy load jvm can free some memory to not get oom kill from system.

@vane and I was under an impression this is exactly the thing -Xms would prevent JVM from doing... Also the JVM has never exceeded 60% of container's RAM, so OOMK was never a threat.

Fuck SO all my experiences have been negative and same with a friend of mine.

@netikras Well you use at least 12 memory allocators in your configuration jvm allocator that align memory to power of 2 ex. in jdk https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/...
jdk virtual memory allocator

OS jvm allocator and virtual memory allocator

Mesos memory allocator and virtual memory allocator.
https://mesos.readthedocs.io/en/...

OS mesos host allocator.
So shit can burn :)

Stack overflow is reddit for coders too much negativity. People just waiting for posts to downvote all the time.
