I have already spent a long time to load and test my application, now I need to profile it. But unluckily, the VisualVM always says "not supported for this JVM" on my local applications?
The applications were started on the same JVM with VisualVM.

Use VisualVM bundled with GraalVMGraalVM contains a fully compliant Java SE 8, Java SE 11, and Java SE 17 JDK distribution based on Oracle JDK and OpenJDK. It features an innovative JIT compiler which may noticeably improve performance of Java applications, compared to the standard Oracle JDK or OpenJDK.
Various optional tools, including Java VisualVM, are provided with the Java Development Kit (JDK) for retrieving different types of data about running JVM software instances.
To run it, just click on the jvisualvm.exe icon. All you need to do is click on the jvisualvm.exe and the application starts up. All Java applications running will be displayed on the right hand side navigation bar. Note that there is no need to register your application with VisualVM - it'll appear automatically.
To add a remote host, right-click the Remote node in the Applications window, choose Add Remote Host and type the host name or IP address in the Add Remote Host dialog box. (You can also specify a display name that will be used to refer to the host when listed under the Remote node.)
I found out that (at least under Windows) one can easily write small batch files to run VisualVM in combination with specific JVMs, which is important for me, since I have installed the 32bit JDK alongside with the 64bit JDK (I need both, so this is sensible for me). I have created two batch files in the folder "S:\applications\visualvm\bin\":
run_32.bat:
@echo off START "VisualVM 32" visualvm.exe --jdkhome "C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.7.0_07" run_64.bat:
@echo off START "VisualVM 64" visualvm.exe --jdkhome "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_07" Obviously, all paths may differ on your system, but the general idea should still work correctly (on all 64bit versions of Windows). The benefit is that I can use the 32bit batch file when I want to use VisualVM in combination with Java applications that run on the 32bit JVM, and so on for 64bit.
The "start" command has the only benefit that the batch file launches the application without waiting for it to finish, so the command prompt window closes immediately. This is not a feature of VisualVM, but of the Windows batch file interpreter.
