title: How long to run compute retained sizes in visual VM for a 1GB heap?
body: <p>I have a 1 GB heap dump from a java process that ran out of heap space. I have uploaded the heap into jvisualm that comes with a java6 distribution. I started the "compute retained sizes" process around 16 hours ago and it is still running. How long should it take to run the compute retained sizes for the top 20 objects on a 1GB heap? Should I expect it to ever finish? </p>
