java object 比较大小,计算Java中的Object的大小

I want to record how much memory (in bytes, hopefully) an object takes up for a project (I'm comparing sizes of data structures) and it seems like there is no method to do this in Java. Supposedly, C/C++ has sizeOf() method, but this is nonexistant in Java. I tried recording the free memory in the JVM with Runtime.getRuntime().freeMemory() before and after creating the object and then recording the difference, but it would only give 0 or 131304, and nothing in between, regardless of the number of elements in the structure. Help please!

You can use the java.lang.instrumentation package:

It has a method that can be used to get the implementation specific approximation of object size, as well as overhead associated with the object.

The answer that Sergey linked has a great example, which I'll repost here, but you should have already looked at from his comment:

import java.lang.instrument.Instrumentation;

public class ObjectSizeFetcher {

private static Instrumentation instrumentation;

public static void premain(String args, Instrumentation inst) {

instrumentation = inst;

}

public static long getObjectSize(Object o) {

return instrumentation.getObjectSize(o);

}

}

Use getObjectSize:

public class C {

private int x;

private int y;

public static void main(String [] args) {

System.out.println(ObjectSizeFetcher.getObjectSize(new C()));

}

}
