java 支持多少线程,Java VM可以支持多少个线程？

How many threads can a Java VM support? Does this vary by vendor? by operating system? other factors?

解决方案

This depends on the CPU you're using, on the OS, on what other processes are doing, on what Java release you're using, and other factors. I've seen a Windows server have > 6500 Threads before bringing the machine down. Most of the threads were not doing anything, of course. Once the machine hit around 6500 Threads (in Java), the whole machine started to have problems and become unstable.

My experience shows that Java (recent versions) can happily consume as many Threads as the computer itself can host without problems.

Of course, you have to have enough RAM and you have to have started Java with enough memory to do everything that the Threads are doing and to have a stack for each Thread. Any machine with a modern CPU (most recent couple generations of AMD or Intel) and with 1 - 2 Gig of memory (depending on OS) can easily support a JVM with thousands of Threads.

If you need a more specific answer than this, your best bet is to profile.
