JVM最多能創建多少個線程: unable to create new native thread

有應用報出這樣的異常“java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: unable to create new native thread”。甚至機器上執行shell命令也會報”-bash: fork: Resource temporarily unavailable”異常。機器上的其他應用如hadoop也會受影響：

1	2013-08-21 20:15:48,496 FATAL org.apache.hadoop.yarn.event.AsyncDispatcher: Error in dispatcher thread

2	java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: unable to create new native thread

一看以為內存不夠導致無法創建新的線程，但是觀察機器上的內存還有空閑，猜測是哪個地方對線程創建有限制。

首先需要排除操作系統對線程創建數的限制，參考：《JVM中可生成的最大Thread數量》一文，設置操作系統可以支持創建10萬個線程：

1	echo "100000" > /proc/sys/kernel/threads-max

2	echo "100000" > /proc/sys/kernel/pid_max     （默認32768）

3	echo "200000" > /proc/sys/vm/max_map_count   （默認65530）

4	ulimit -u unlimited   (設置max user processes的值)

當前測試環境為：

1	[[e-mail] ~]$ uname -a

2	Linux bufer108081.tbc 2.6.32-220.23.2.ali927.el5.x86_64 #1 SMP Mon Jan 28 14:57:06 CST 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

測試程序見本文最后面。測試結果：突破了網上所說的32000個線程數，成功創建了 10萬個線程。 （由於/proc/sys/kernel/pid_max默認為32768，所以網上很多測試程序測試JVM只能創建32000個線程。）

創建9W多個線程后，進程占用內存：VIRT=40.5g RES=4.7g，用free -g查看系統還有9G的空閑(free)內存。

JVM最多能啟動的線程數參照公式：

 

1	(MaxProcessMemory  - JVMMemory – ReservedOsMemory) / (ThreadStackSize) = Number of threads

• MaxProcessMemory : 進程的最大尋址空間
• JVMMemory : JVM內存
• ReservedOsMemory : 保留的操作系統內存，如Native heap，JNI之類，一般100多M
• ThreadStackSize : 線程棧的大小，jvm啟動時由Xss指定

MaxProcessMemory：如32位的linux默認每個進程最多申請3G的地址空間，64位的操作系統可以支持到46位（64TB）的物理地址空間和47位（128T）的進程虛擬地址空間（linux 64位CPU內存限制）。

JVM內存：由Heap區和Perm區組成。通過-Xms和-Xmx可以指定heap區大小，通過-XX:PermSize和-XX:MaxPermSize指定perm區的大小(默認從32MB 到64MB，和JVM版本有關)。

線程棧ThreadStackSize：

Java程序中，每個線程都有自己的Stack Space。這個Stack Space的空間是獨立分配的，與-Xmx和-Xms指定的堆大小無關。Stack Space用來做方法的遞歸調用時壓入Stack Frame。所以當遞歸調用太深的時候，就有可能耗盡Stack Space，爆出StackOverflow的錯誤。對於32位JVM，缺省值為256KB，對於64位JVM，缺省值為512KB。最大值根據平台和特定機器配置的不同而不同。如果超過最大值，那么將報告java/lang/OutOfMemoryError消息。

可見，減少Xss指定的線程棧大小能夠啟動更多的線程，但是線程總數也受到系統空閑內存和操作系統的限制。

總結下影響Java線程數量的因素：

• Java虛擬機本身：-Xms，-Xmx，-Xss；
• 系統限制： /proc/sys/kernel/pid_max， /proc/sys/kernel/thread-max， max_user_process（ulimit -u）， /proc/sys/vm/max_map_count。

ps: 最后發現是這台機器上有個應用代碼問題創建了過多的線程，達到系統限制，而影響了YARN和其他應用。一般來說，單機線程數過多可以考慮使用線程池或者更多的服務器。
