Java Object Layout (JOL) is a toolbox for analyzing object layout, memory footprint, and references inside JVMs. It uses Unsafe, JVMTI, and Serviceability Agent to decode actual object layouts more accurately than heap-dump-based tools.

Use cases

  • analyze java object memory layout
  • measure object memory footprint in jvm
  • inspect field layout and padding of a class
  • find duplicate strings in a heap dump
  • estimate object sizes under compressed oops
  • debug memory overhead of java data structures

When to choose

  • you need precise JVM object layout and footprint data
  • you are tuning memory usage of Java applications
  • you want to understand object header and alignment behavior

When to avoid

  • you need general heap profiling rather than layout analysis
  • you work outside the JVM ecosystem
