kcpeppe / jheappo_retired

A Heap Dump Analyzer

jheappo

A Heap Dump Parser

Neo4j Export

run Heappo and add the "graph" parameter

java org.adoptopenjdk.jheappo.Heappo "/path/to/file.hprof" graph

It will create a graph.db directory.

The graph model is:

(:Class {id, name, _fields})-[:SUPERCLASS]->(:Class)
(:Instance {id, _fields})-[:IS_CLASS]->(:Class)
(:Instance)-[:CONTAINS]->(:Instance)

Query Graph Console

You can open it directly with neo4j-shell:

$NEO4J_HOME/bin/neo4j-shell -path graph.db

and then run queries like:

~/v/neo4j-enterprise-3.3.3/bin/neo4j-shell -path graph.db
NOTE: Local Neo4j graph database service at 'graph.db'

Graph Visualization

Ìf you want to see the graph visually, download and install Neo4j(Desktop) and create an new "Graph" in your "Project"

Then go to "Manager" -> "Open Folder" and copy the graph.db directory into data/database/graph.db

Then you can start the server and "Open Neo4j Browser" to execute queries and interactively visualize the data.

Note: As the Heap graph is very large and dense, Neo4j browser's default visualization will come to its limits quickly.

Then you need to add LIMIT's or filter / group data.
