  2. Java performance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_performance

    Java memory use is much higher than C++'s memory use because: There is an overhead of 8 bytes for each object and 12 bytes for each array [61] in Java. If the size of an object is not a multiple of 8 bytes, it is rounded up to next multiple of 8. This means an object holding one byte field occupies 16 bytes and needs a 4-byte reference.

  3. Memory leak - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_leak

    A memory leak can cause an increase in memory usage and performance run-time, and can negatively impact the user experience. [4] Eventually, in the worst case, too much of the available memory may become allocated and all or part of the system or device stops working correctly, the application fails, or the system slows down vastly due to ...

  4. Memory corruption - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_corruption

    Using non-owned memory: It is common to use pointers to access and modify memory. If such a pointer is a null pointer, dangling pointer (pointing to memory that has already been freed), or to a memory location outside of current stack or heap bounds, it is referring to memory that is not then possessed by the program. Using such pointers is a ...

  5. Memory safety - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_safety

    Memory errors were first considered in the context of resource management (computing) and time-sharing systems, in an effort to avoid problems such as fork bombs. [4] Developments were mostly theoretical until the Morris worm , which exploited a buffer overflow in fingerd . [ 5 ]

    ⊞ Win+Space (Windows 7) ⊞ Win+Comma (Windows 8+) ⌘ Cmd+F3 or F11 or Move mouse pointer to configured hot corner or active screen corner [25] [26] Bring gadgets to the front of the Z-order and cycle between gadgets ⊞ Win+G (Windows Vista,7) or ⊞ Win+Space (Vista only, no cycling) External display options (mirror, extend desktop, etc.)

  7. Dangling pointer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dangling_pointer

    If the memory has been reallocated to another process, then attempting to dereference the dangling pointer can cause segmentation faults (UNIX, Linux) or general protection faults (Windows). If the program has sufficient privileges to allow it to overwrite the bookkeeping data used by the kernel's memory allocator, the corruption can cause ...

  8. sbrk - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sbrk

    The amount of available space increases as the break value increases. The available space is initialized to a value of zero, unless the break is lowered and then increased, as it may reuse the same pages in some unspecified way. The break value can be automatically rounded up to a size appropriate for the memory management architecture. [4]

  9. Java memory model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_memory_model

    The Java memory model describes how threads in the Java programming language interact through memory. Together with the description of single-threaded execution of ...
