Viewing Predecessors and Successors

By selecting a method in the Top Hot Methods table, you can see its sampled Predecessors and Successors (Figure 7-3). The predecessors are the methods that call the selected method and the successors are the methods that the selected method calls.

Viewing Predecessors and Successors

The number within brackets of a particular predecessor or successor is the number of sampled call traces of which the method is part. The percentage shows how common a particular path is in the method tree. If you see methods that are called a lot from JRockit, you might want to investigate if that method is causing your application to run slower than necessary.
