Yes, I've seen that situation too. Typically, there will be several requests all getting out of memory errors at the same time (since nearly everything in Java makes requests to the allocator). > was happening i looked at Task Manager and zeroed in on the jrun > process and > it was running well under the 512MB limit.

If that is true then > what That is a little strange but I believe you (because you are not the only person to have monitored memory usage and observed that same behavior). I'm not entirely sure of a suitable explanation for what you are seeing but I'm having a conversation with some folks internally about this. My experience has been that if the system hits an out of memory error and then you stop accessing it for a while, it finishes garbage collecting and recovers fairly well (we've load tested CFMX to that point and had it recover properly several times). Mind you, watching the memory usage on Solaris we *have* seen it hit the high water mark at the point of error. > was happening. Did it reach the threshold once and now not know how to > recover from it even though the memory usage was much lower? I don't know. That behavior doesn't match what I've observed on Solaris. I'll continue to follow up internally and post any further information that I can.
