standard java vm proxy_Oracle GraalVM初体验，性能不如Java9！

原标题：Oracle GraalVM初体验，性能不如Java9！

近期，Oracle发布了GraalVM 1.0版本。GraalVM是一个通用虚拟机，支持多语言，而且高性能。用于运行使用Java，Python 3，Ruby，R，基于JVM的语言，如Java，Scala，Kotlin，和基于LLVM的语言，如C和C ++编写的应用。

GraalVM消除了编程语言之间的隔离，并在共享运行时启用了互操作性。它可以独立运行，也可以在OpenJDK，Node.js，Oracle数据库或MySQL环境中运行。

有几个因素可能会让你想要从常规的JRE切换到GraalVM：

其中之一可能是它声称的改进的性能

另一个可能是多语言功能，以透明地混合匹配支持的语言

还有，通过本地支持，可以将Java应用作为本机代码提供

当然，GraalVM的发布，也吸引了许多技术极客的目光，想要一探究竟。本文来自国外的一名超过15年经验的软件架构师Nicolas Fränkel，看看他眼中的GraalVM。

作者简介

第一步是下载Graal VM。它有两种选择：

社区版(Community Edition)

所有开源许可证

免费供生产使用

企业版(Enterprise Edition)

免费用于评估和其他非生产用途

对于商业用途和支持选项，应联系销售团队

第一个体验感受：CE版仅支持Linux操作系统。对于OSX，需要使用EE版本。目前还没有Windows版本(那么，未来还有吗？)

GraalVM架构

该架构与传统的Java JDK 9之前的版本相似。

GraalVM JDK的架构

因此，GraalVM可以成为任何标准JDK的替代品。

运行java -version将返回以下的输出：

java version "1.8.0_161"Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_161-b12)GraalVM 1.0.0-rc1 (build 25.71-b01-internal-jvmci-0.42, mixed mode)

截至目前，GraalVM仅限于Java 8功能。

一些性能测试基准

下一步是检查性能是否有所改善。我使用了JMH框架：它专注于此。

我使用了下面的代码：

并使用java -jar target / benchmarks.jar命令行在3个不同的JRE上进行了测试。

GraalVM结果

测试比较如下：

性能方面，GraalVM和Java 8之间的差距并不明显，而他们和Java 9之间标准差最高。

本地化

GraalVM能够通过native-image命令行将JAR转换为本机可执行文件。我试图用创建的JAR来完成它。

native-image -H:+JNI -jar target/benchmarks.jar

但是，当试图运行新创建的二进制文件时，我偶然发现了以下内容：

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException at java.lang.Throwable.(Throwable.java:310) at java.lang.Exception.(Exception.java:102) at java.lang.ReflectiveOperationException.(ReflectiveOperationException.java:89) at java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException.(InvocationTargetException.java:72) at com.oracle.svm.reflect.proxies.Proxy_3_Main_main.invoke(Unknown Source) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:498) at com.oracle.svm.core.JavaMainWrapper.run(JavaMainWrapper.java:199) at Lcom/oracle/svm/core/code/CEntryPointCallStubs; .com_002eoracle_002esvm_002ecore_002eJavaMainWrapper_002erun_0028int_002corg_002egraalvm_002enativeimage_002ec_002etype_002eCCharPointerPointer_0029(generated:0)Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: class org.openjdk.jmh.runner.options.TimeValue is not a value type at java.lang.Throwable.(Throwable.java:265) at java.lang.Exception.(Exception.java:66) at java.lang.RuntimeException.(RuntimeException.java:62) at java.lang.IllegalArgumentException.(IllegalArgumentException.java:52) at joptsimple.internal.Reflection.findConverter(Reflection.java:66) at joptsimple.ArgumentAcceptingOptionSpec.ofType(ArgumentAcceptingOptionSpec.java:106) at org.openjdk.jmh.runner.options.CommandLineOptions.(CommandLineOptions.java:109) at org.openjdk.jmh.Main.main(Main.java:41) ... 4 more

更糟的是，试图为Spring Pet Clinic创建一个镜像失败，原因如下：

动态类加载不适用于GraalVM。我尝试使用H2和HSQLDB独立JAR ......无济于事。在这两种情况下，我得到了以下堆栈：

java.lang.NullPointerException at com.oracle.graal.pointsto.ObjectScanner.scanField(ObjectScanner.java:113) at com.oracle.graal.pointsto.ObjectScanner.doScan(ObjectScanner.java:263) at com.oracle.graal.pointsto.ObjectScanner.finish(ObjectScanner.java:307) at com.oracle.graal.pointsto.ObjectScanner.scanBootImageHeapRoots(ObjectScanner.java:78) at com.oracle.graal.pointsto.ObjectScanner.scanBootImageHeapRoots(ObjectScanner.java:60) at com.oracle.graal.pointsto.BigBang.checkObjectGraph(BigBang.java:581) at com.oracle.graal.pointsto.BigBang.finish(BigBang.java:552) at com.oracle.svm.hosted.NativeImageGenerator.doRun(NativeImageGenerator.java:653) at com.oracle.svm.hosted.NativeImageGenerator.lambda$run$0(NativeImageGenerator.java:381) at java.util.concurrent.ForkJoinTask$AdaptedRunnableAction.exec(ForkJoinTask.java:1386) at java.util.concurrent.ForkJoinTask.doExec(ForkJoinTask.java:289) at java.util.concurrent.ForkJoinPool$WorkQueue.runTask(ForkJoinPool.java:1056) at java.util.concurrent.ForkJoinPool.runWorker(ForkJoinPool.java:1692) at java.util.concurrent.ForkJoinWorkerThread.run(ForkJoinWorkerThread.java:157)----

结论

GraalVM具有许多有前景远大的功能，包括多语言功能，尽管我现在对该功能没什么兴趣。但是，从我有限的测试后，它仍然有改善的余地。在性能方面，Java 9表现更出色.而且，本地镜像像创建在当前状态下的使用太有限。恕我直言，目前它处于MVP状态。希望在下一个版本中能够改进上述问题。返回搜狐，查看更多
