java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: GC overhead limit exceeded

这个是JDK6新添的错误类型。是发生在GC占用大量时间为释放很小空间的时候发生的，是一种保护机制。解决方案是，关闭该功能，使用—— -XX:-UseGCOverheadLimit

 

这里要查看是否有使用大内存的代码或死循环。

 

Sun官方解释：

The parallel / concurrent collector will throw an OutOfMemoryError if too much time is being spent in garbage collection: if more than 98% of the total time is spent in garbage collection and less than 2% of the heap is recovered, an OutOfMemoryError will be thrown. This feature is designed to prevent applications from running for an extended period of time while making little or no progress because the heap is too small. If necessary, this feature can be disabled by adding the option -XX:-UseGCOverheadLimit to the command line.
