Hello -

I am trying to restrict the heap available to Tomcat 6. It is running on Fedora 
8. I have tried  to set -Xmx every way that I can think of and yet Tomcat grows 
to 3 times the heap allotted. While I understand that -Xmx != total memory 
commitment, 3X makes me think that I'm not getting this. Help with the 
following questions would be appreciated:
1. Is there a way to check if the flag has been set (ps shows the -Xmx as part 
of the command and catalina.sh throws no exception, but...).
2. Is 3X -Xmx normal? If so, what's the outer limit?
3. Other than via the command line, bash_profile and catalina.sh is there some 
fool proof way to set Xmx.
4. Is there another way to restrict memory use (ulimit and limits.conf have 
been tried without success).

Thanks for the help.
