java - java中对象的大小是多少

Question

众所周知java使用了以下几种数据类型

byte    Occupy 8 bits in memory
short   Occupy 16 bits in memory
int     Occupy 32 bits in memory
long    Occupy 64 bits in memory 

如果我创建一个类

class Demo{
    byte b;        
    int i;
    long l;
}

Demo obj = new Demo();

现在我的问题是obj大小是 < or > or = b+i+l 的大小这是 104 bytes .请给我澄清并附上适当的理由。

谢谢，

1. a bare Object takes up 8 bytes;
2. an instance of a class with a single boolean field takes up 16 bytes: 8 bytes of header, 1 byte for the boolean and 7 bytes of "padding" to make the size up to a multiple of 8;
3. an instance with eight boolean fields will also take up 16 bytes: 8 for the header, 8 for the booleans; since this is already a multiple of 8, no padding is needed;
4. an object with a two long fields, three int fields and a boolean will take up:
   • 8 bytes for the header;
   • 16 bytes for the 2 longs (8 each);
   • 12 bytes for the 3 ints (4 each);
   • 1 byte for the boolean;
   • a further 3 bytes of padding, to round the total up from 37 to 40, a multiple of 8.
