如果您的应用程序有Apache公共lang库作为依赖项，或者正在使用Spring框架，那么您还可以使用SerializationUtils类快速查找任何给定对象的大约字节大小。

byte[] data = SerializationUtils.serialize(user);
System.out.println("Approximate object size in bytes " + data.length);

您可以生成一个堆转储(例如，使用jmap)，然后分析输出以查找对象大小。这是一种离线解决方案，但是您可以检查浅尺寸和深尺寸等。

我曾经写过一个快速测试来进行评估:

public class Test1 {

    // non-static nested
    class Nested { }

    // static nested
    static class StaticNested { }

    static long getFreeMemory () {
        // waits for free memory measurement to stabilize
        long init = Runtime.getRuntime().freeMemory(), init2;
        int count = 0;
        do {
            System.out.println("waiting..." + init);
            System.gc();
            try { Thread.sleep(250); } catch (Exception x) { }
            init2 = init;
            init = Runtime.getRuntime().freeMemory();
            if (init == init2) ++ count; else count = 0;
        } while (count < 5);
        System.out.println("ok..." + init);
        return init;
    }

    Test1 () throws InterruptedException {

        Object[] s = new Object[10000];
        Object[] n = new Object[10000];
        Object[] t = new Object[10000];

        long init = getFreeMemory();

        //for (int j = 0; j < 10000; ++ j)
        //    s[j] = new Separate();

        long afters = getFreeMemory();

        for (int j = 0; j < 10000; ++ j)
            n[j] = new Nested();

        long aftersn = getFreeMemory();

        for (int j = 0; j < 10000; ++ j)
            t[j] = new StaticNested();

        long aftersnt = getFreeMemory();

        System.out.println("separate:      " + -(afters - init) + " each=" + -(afters - init) / 10000);
        System.out.println("nested:        " + -(aftersn - afters) + " each=" + -(aftersn - afters) / 10000);
        System.out.println("static nested: " + -(aftersnt - aftersn) + " each=" + -(aftersnt - aftersn) / 10000);

    }

    public static void main (String[] args) throws InterruptedException {
        new Test1();
    }

}

一般概念是分配对象并测量空闲堆空间的变化。键是getFreeMemory()，它请求GC运行并等待报告的空闲堆大小稳定下来。上面的输出是:

nested:        160000 each=16
static nested: 160000 each=16

考虑到对齐行为和可能的堆块报头开销，这正是我们所期望的。

仪器仪表方法详细在这里接受的答案是最准确的。我描述的方法是准确的，但只有在受控条件下，即没有其他线程创建/丢弃对象。

下面是我使用一些链接示例制作的实用程序，用于处理32位、64位和64位压缩OOP。它使用sun.misc.不安全。

它使用Unsafe. addresssize()来获取本机指针的大小和Unsafe。arrayIndexScale(Object[].class)表示Java引用的大小。

它使用已知类的字段偏移量来计算对象的基大小。

不需要干扰插装等，如果你不需要知道一个对象的确切字节大小，你可以使用以下方法:

System.gc();
Runtime.getRuntime().totalMemory() - Runtime.getRuntime().freeMemory();

do your job here

System.gc();
Runtime.getRuntime().totalMemory() - Runtime.getRuntime().freeMemory();

通过这种方式，您可以读取之前和之后使用的内存，并在获得使用的内存之前调用GC，将“噪声”降低到几乎为0。

为了得到更可靠的结果，您可以运行作业n次，然后将使用的内存除以n，得到一次运行占用的内存。甚至，你可以把整个过程运行更多次，得到一个平均值。

当我在Twitter工作时，我写了一个计算深度对象大小的实用程序。它考虑了不同的内存模型(32位，压缩oops, 64位)，填充，子类填充，在循环数据结构和数组上正确工作。你可以编译这个。java文件;它没有外部依赖:
