   Description     : Java Object Layout - tiny toolbox to analyze object layouts in JVMs

JOL (Java Object Layout) is a tiny toolbox to analyze object layout
schemes in JVMs. These tools are using Unsafe, JVMTI, and Serviceability
Agent (SA) heavily to decode the actual object layout, footprint, and
references. This makes JOL much more accurate than other tools relying on
heap dumps, specification assumptions, etc.


JOL is a dependency of the Java library commons-imaging (cf. RFP #1020916
[1]).
