1. It might be an issue with "ps" utility that it shows threads as separate processes: In it already mentioned in the FAQ: http://wiki.apache.org/tomcat/FAQ/Linux_Unix#Q1 In Tomcat 6 and later you can configure an <Executor> so that unneeded request processing threads can be stopped. Without an <Executor> the threads will be created if concurrent load on your Tomcat increases, so active thread count will increase until it reaches the default count of 200 request processing threads on <Connector>. 2. Are you starting any additional processes by yourself? (E.g. when using CGIServlet). > tomcat 21115 21114 0 14:46:44 ? 193:04 /usr/java/bin/java > -Djava.util.logging.config.file=/opt/apache-tomcat -5.5.27-ti > tomcat 773 21115 0 17:29:27 ? 0:00 /usr/java/bin/java > -Djava.util.logging.config.file=/opt/apache-tomcat -5.5.27-ti Best regards, Konstantin Kolinko --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
