@sangs8788, Similar question has been asked for GC Log: https://answers.splunk.com/answers/568989/garbage-collection-logs-field-extraction-from-log.html

Try the following regular expression:

\[([^\(]+)\(([^\)]+)\)[\)|\s]+(?<field1>\d+)K-\>(?<field2>\d+)K\((?<field3>\d+)K\), (?<field4>[\d|\.]+)

You can test your regular expression with sample log data on regex101.com
