Android(安卓)object size in Dalvik

Size of data

Size of reference

In HotSpot, an object reference is 4 bytes in 32 bit JVM, 8 bytes in 64 bit JVM with-UseCompressedOopsand 4 bytes with+UseCompressedOops. In Dalvik, reference is always 4 bytes.

Size of primitive data type

The size of the primitive data type is fixd as follows:

Data type	32 bit JVM	64 bit +UseCompressedOops	64bit -UseCompressedOops
Object reference	4	4	8
boolean	1	1	1
byte	1	1	1
char	2	2	2
short	2	2	2
int	4	4	4
float	4	4	4
long	8	8	8
double	8	8	8

But the size of the primitive type data is very diffrent in Dalvik.

The size of a primitive data type is not the same when it is a field of object or a variable from when it is an element in Array.

Data type	Size as field / variable	Size in Array	32 bit JVM	64 bit +	64bit -
Object reference	4	4	4	4	8
boolean	4	1	1	1	1
byte	4	1	1	1	1
char	4	2	2	2	2
short	4	2	2	2	2
int	4	4	4	4	4
float	4	4	4	4	4
long	8	8	8	8	8
double	8	8	8	8	8

Size of object

Alignment

In Dalvik,the boundary alignment of an object is also 8 bytes.
Overhead of Object

In HotSpot, as we know, the overhead of object is 8 bytes in 32 bit JVM, and 16 bytes in 64 bit JVM withoutUseCompressedOopsand 12 bytes with+UseCompressedOops.

In Dalvik, this is diffrent. The memory of an object looks like:
```
+---------------------+----------------------+----------+|overheade of Object  | overhead of dlmalloc |   data   |+---------------------+----------------------+----------+|   8 bytes           |  4 or 8 bytes        |          |+---------------------+----------------------+----------+
```
There is another overhead for dlmalloc, which will take 4 or 8 bytes.

So an empty object will take 16bytes, 12 bytes for overhead, 4 bytes for padding.

Here are some examples:
```
class EmptyClass { } 
```
Total size: 8 (Object overhead) + 4 (dlmalloc) = 12 bytes. For 8 bytes alignment, the final total size is 16 bytes.
```
class Integer { int value; // 4 bytes } 
```
The total size is: 8 + 4 + 4 (int) = 16 bytes.
```
static class HashMapEntry<K, V> { final K key; // 4 bytes final int hash; // 4 bytes V value; // 4 bytes HashMapEntry<K, V> next; // 4 bytes } 
```
The total size: 8 + 4 + 4 * 4 = 28 bytes. Total aligned is 32 bytes.

Size of Array

The memory layout of Array looks like:

+---------------------+----------------------+----------+---------+------+|overheade of Object  | overhead of dlmalloc |   size   | padding | data |+---------------------+----------------------+----------+---------+------+|   8 bytes           |  4 or 8 bytes        |  4 bytes | 4 bytes |      |+---------------------+----------------------+----------+---------+------+

The alignment is also 8 bytes.

Sobyte[0]will take: 8 + 4 + 4 + 4 = 20 bytes. The final size after alignment is 24 bytes.

byte[0]~byte[4]are all 24 bytes.

char[0] will also take 24 bytes. And fromchar[0]tochar[2]`, they are all 24 bytes.

Size ofString

String is defined as follows:

class String { private final char[] value; // 4 bytes private final int offset; // 4 bytes private final int count; // 4 bytes private int hashCode; // 4 bytes }

Total size: 8 + 4 + 4 * 4 = 28 bytes. Total aligned is 32 bytes, which excludes the retained memory of char array(at least 24 bytes).

So, even an empty String will still take at least 32 bytes of shadow heap and 24 bytes of retained heap.
