39. Where are application logs stored in the Linux OS?
Application logs are usually stored in the /var/log/ directory. Depending on the application's configuration, they may have their own subdirectories or files, for example /var/log/myapp.log. Applications may also write logs to the system journal via syslog or journald.
40. Signs of memory leaks in a Java application:
- Significant decrease in performance during prolonged operation due to increased garbage collection time.
- Errors in logs related to memory shortage, such as
OutOfMemoryError. - Continuous growth in memory consumption in monitoring (heap size does not stabilize).
- Frequent and long garbage collector pauses.
- In rare cases — application crash (
FatalError).
Signs like "memoryEmpty" or "lock screens" are not standard indicators of memory leaks; they may be specific symptoms for a particular application or environment.
