Let's explore memory leaks and memory inefficiency patterns in Java backend systems. After reviewing the Java Memory Model and the JVM flags you #musthave in production, we’ll analyze heapdumps of 10 common memory leaks, collected with ❤️ from 150+ companies over a decade of consultancy. You'll hear about ThreadLocal, inner classes, cache/hash keys messup, thread leaks, and many others. In the end, you'll get access to a large repo of memory leaks + heap dumps for later self-study. Oh, and you can get a bounty for any real memory leak you had, which is not yet in that repo 😊.
