Using observed object patterns to dynamically tune a virtual machine for responsiveness

摘要

One embodiment of the present invention provides a system that uses observed object patterns to dynamically tune a virtual machine for responsiveness and/or throughput. The system first analyzes a memory region containing a set of objects to identify objects in the memory region that indicate the need for responsiveness and/or throughput. The system gathers statistics based on the identified and unidentified objects in the set of objects, and then uses these statistics to dynamically tune a virtual machine.
