I'm trying to track down a memory leak, and I can't figure out how to find what's retaining the object. Many of the object's members hold references to it, so the inbounds view is clogged up by those items that will get freed with the object.

Doing "shortest path to GC root" zooms out to the massive top level of the classloader itself, making me dig all the way down to find the object in question.

Does anyone know how to filter the inbounds of an object to just those that wouldn't get disposed with said object?

You might want to check the leak suspects report

#

you might be able to filter per class

#

and immediate dominators may be useful as well: https://help.eclipse.org/latest/index.jsp?topic=%2Forg.eclipse.mat.ui.help%2Freference%2Finspections%2Fimmediate_dominators.html

#

that should mostly do what you want

#

alternatively you could try writing custom queries: https://help.eclipse.org/latest/index.jsp?topic=%2Forg.eclipse.mat.ui.help%2Freference%2Fselectingqueries.html&cp%3D50_4_4
