jmeter5.4.3在linux上压测8小时后生成报告出现java.lang.OutOfMemoryError异常及解决方法

1. 问题背景

项目中需要对服务程序进行比较长时间的压力测试，在经过8小时的压力测试后，开始生成报告的时候，突然出现了java.lang.OutOfMemoryError。控制台输出如下：

summary +   1336 in 00:00:34 =   39.2/s Avg:   262 Min:    46 Max:   770 Err:     0 (0.00%) Active: 1 Started: 50 Finished: 49
summary = 5219870 in 08:00:27 =  181.1/s Avg:   264 Min:    33 Max:  7204 Err:     0 (0.00%)
summary = 5219870 in 08:00:27 =  181.1/s Avg:   264 Min:    33 Max:  7204 Err:     0 (0.00%)

Uncaught Exception java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space in thread Thread[StandardJMeterEngine,5,main]. See log file for details.

从输出信息可以看出，压力测试已经完成，也就是jtl文件已经生成，只是在根据jtl文件生成web测试报告的时候出现了内存溢出。重新执行根据jtl文件生成web报告。

./jmeter -g ./test208-8.jtl -o ./result208-8

这里根据test208-8.jtl文件，生成报告在result208-8目录下。

仍然出现内存溢出，怀疑jmeter的内存设置小了。

2. 修改jmeter内存大小

在jmeter文件中找到如下位置：

# This is the base heap size -- you may increase or decrease it to fit your
# system's memory availability:
: "${HEAP:="-Xms1g -Xmx1g -XX:MaxMetaspaceSize=256m"}"

修改为如下：

# This is the base heap size -- you may increase or decrease it to fit your
# system's memory availability:
: "${HEAP:="-Xms2g -Xmx4g -XX:MaxMetaspaceSize=256m"}"

继续执行报告转换，仍然出现内存溢出错误，继续加大内存配置如下： 

# This is the base heap size -- you may increase or decrease it to fit your
# system's memory availability:
: "${HEAP:="-Xms4g -Xmx6g -XX:MaxMetaspaceSize=256m"}"

3. 重新执行转换

./jmeter -g ./test208-8.jtl -o ./result208-8

启动jmeter后，可以查看堆内存分配：

可以看到堆内存修改生效了。 

这次执行报告转换成功了。

后来查看jtl文件，文件大小2GB，已经是挺大的文件了。
