Unrelated to the OP's issue, but so long as we're discussing logback, a problem we've always had with logback is it's own debug output during multi-JVM cluster tests. Logback outputs its status info for every JVM in the test. Multiple times. No one on our team has been able to get it to stop, we suspect it's an issue with conflicting logback.xml files on the classpath.
Cmd-f finds the log statement we need, sure, but Circle CI truncates its logs so sometimes the statement is lost. :( </derail> On Tuesday, December 10, 2013 7:40:32 PM UTC+1, Pierre Andrews wrote: > > Hello, > > I have been profiling the memory usage of my akka app to get ready to put > it in prod, but after a couple hours of running, it eventually runs out of > heap.
