How can I profile the java application for hotspot analysis?

[Ayam]

Hello,

I am running the wordcount example of hadoop on intel vtune for hotspot analysis. Command is bin/hadoop jar /usr/local/hadoop/hadoop-examples-1.2.1.jar wordcount inputfile outputfile. Hotspot analysis provides the modules information libzip.so, [compiled java code], [Dynamic code], libjvm.so, libc-2.17.so, libz.so.1.2.8 and [unknown]. My understanding is that [unknown] module is the wordcount application. However, to be sure I want to see what function inside the wordcount example are the hotspot functions. 

I have tried to recompile the java source code with the -g flag and updated the jar file however I still can not see what is inside the unknown module.  

Can you please tell me what is the best way to solve this issue?

System information: Intel Atom with Linux OS

Did you try to run javap on your app? Were you able to see function definitions with corresponding bytecode?

@iliyapolak I have just tried running the application with javap. I have attached the output "named "wordcount_javap" with this message along the hotspot analysis of the same application on the intel vtune. How can I used javap output for hotspot analysis.

In your project properties within VTune Analyzer did you set the Binary/Symbol Search and Source Search paths to include your application source and symbol information?  It's possible that VTune is not finding the symbol information in its default search path.

Javap is not designed for hotspot analysis. I asked you to run javap on your code classes in order to see if methods names and their bytecode can be properly resolved.

Btw, wordcount_javap bytecode belongs only to main function.How many classes does your app build upon?

My application is wordcount example of hadoop. I am accessing the wordcount.class from the hadoop hadoop-examples-1.2.1.jar  file. I have attached the source code with this message for the reference.

Thanks for posting sources now it is clear that most of the functionality is imported.
