The promise of Artifactory is great, it looks like the right tool for the
job, but we keep on disappointing ourselves by having it all not quite
configured as good as we'd want to. Simply because we're just not as good
Linux system admins as we would want to be. So I'm about to phrase some
questions here that may have more to do with Linux than with Artifactory,
but I still hope y'all are willing to help me, so here goes nothing!

- Running Artifactory 2.0.5 (r4903)
- Tomcat 5.5, Apache2, AJP:

ProxyPass        /repo ajp://localhost:6009/artifactory
ProxyPassReverse /repo ajp://localhost:6009/artifactory

- Environment: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.3 (Tikanga)
- Something dual quadcore, Xeon, 4GB RAM, Blade server
- Shares the machine with one other application that's idle most of the time
- We've a few backup windows, where we've configured Artifactory to export
data. During this time developers can go for a walk: they can not use the
repository *at all*
- Outside the backup windows, the repository is generally available, but
we're still experiencing a lot of failures, such as those listed at the end
of my post
- Our Continuous Integration build fails about 20% of the time just due to
Artifactory not being properly available
- No other backups (than the one mentioned before) running (e.g. "in the
background") at the times mentioned here

Is there any environment optimisation that is generally recommended to get
Artifactory running well? Any help is much appreciated. I can provide more
information if there's anything specific you'd need to know!

Best regards, Sander.
