  • I would advise that you don't attach jconsole, visualvm or any other profiler during a load test for which you want to gather execution stats. I would instead run your load test with jconsole (visualvm, yourkit) attached to identify issues to be fixed/ improved between stats-gathering runs (but turn off for the runs themselves). – wmorrison365 Feb 11 '14 at 15:26

JConsole is good tool, but i prefer to use visualVM, its free and more powerful tool to track the J2EE performance application, some of its features:

  • Provide a CPU profiling.
  • Provide all info about Threads.
  • Provide the JVM Heap and the memory states.
  • Provide Info about the GC activities.

And its not creating any issue, it maybe has some performance impact in the load test, but you will not notice that.
