`Monitor cpu usage per thread in java?

Question

I would like to ask whether there is some simple way to determine cpu usage per thread in java. Thanks

Answer 1

I believe the JConsole (archived link) does provide this kind of information through a plugin

It uses ThreadMXBean getThreadCpuTime() function.

Something along the line of:

        long upTime = runtimeProxy.getUptime();
        List<Long> threadCpuTime = new ArrayList<Long>();
        for (int i = 0; i < threadIds.size(); i++) {
            long threadId = threadIds.get(i);
            if (threadId != -1) {
                threadCpuTime.add(threadProxy.getThreadCpuTime(threadId));
            } else {
                threadCpuTime.add(0L);
            }
        }
        int nCPUs = osProxy.getAvailableProcessors();
        List<Float> cpuUsageList = new ArrayList<Float>();
        if (prevUpTime > 0L && upTime > prevUpTime) {
            // elapsedTime is in ms
            long elapsedTime = upTime - prevUpTime;
            for (int i = 0; i < threadIds.size(); i++) {
                // elapsedCpu is in ns
                long elapsedCpu = threadCpuTime.get(i) - prevThreadCpuTime.get(i);
                // cpuUsage could go higher than 100% because elapsedTime
                // and elapsedCpu are not fetched simultaneously. Limit to
                // 99% to avoid Chart showing a scale from 0% to 200%.
                float cpuUsage = Math.min(99F, elapsedCpu / (elapsedTime * 1000000F * nCPUs));
                cpuUsageList.add(cpuUsage);
            }
        }
