The load on one of our servers (CFMX 6.1, Red Hat Advanced Server 2.1 ES, Apache 1.3 connecting to
MySQL datasources on a separate box) has recently increased and the memory usage by CFMX has gone
through the roof. We used to need to re-start the box every fortnight but now it is only lasting a
matter of 48 hours or so.
Firstly, does anyone have any configuration tips for getting CFMX to better manage the available
server memory? It doesn't seem to ever release the memory and a complete system reboot seems to be
the only way to clear it. We currently have 1.25Gb installed and the simplest solution would be to
just add more physical RAM but surely there is a way to get CFMX to better handle the available
RAM?!
Secondly - and slightly off-topic - but does anyone know of a Linux utility which can be run on the
server (a bit like 'top') and would send an email when the available RAM falls below a certain
level? It would make managing the machines a lot easier!
Many thanks.
Kind regards,
Matt.
