Allocation Failure

843811Jan 8 2004 — edited Nov 26 2007
Hi,
when running my application with the '-verbosegc' flage i get an "Allocation Failure " previously to the minor garbage collector.

<AF[1]: Allocation Failure. need 536 bytes, 0 ms since last AF>
<AF[1]: managing allocation failure, action=0 (237823304/536869376)>
<GC(1): GC cycle started Wed Jan 7 13:23:01 2004
<GC(1): freed 242555344 bytes, 89% free (480378648/536869376), in 167 ms>
<GC(1): mark: 130 ms, sweep: 37 ms, compact: 0 ms>
<GC(1): refs: soft 0 (age >= 32), weak 0, final 1515, phantom 0>
<AF[1]: completed in 209 ms>

my questions are -
1. is that normal ?
2. does the last line ("<AF[1]: completed in 209 ms>") means that the JVM has over-come the AF , or am i still having a problem .
3. can this be solved by configuring the VM ?

Thanks In Advanced
Kel
