You sure it's MX? Could there be something going on with iPlanet? Your
database connection? We use CFMX 6.0 and 6.1 on both Solaris 7 and 8 boxes
using Apache 2.0.47 and have had no such problems. The only note I will
append to that statement is that when we re-start an MX instance, JRun tends
to peg our CPU for about 30 minutes or so. I haven't fully diagnosed it, but
I think that it's loading libraries and caching things under the hood into
memory. But after roughly half an hour of a dip in performance (and, to be
honest, I really only notice it because I'm looking for it), we hum along
with no issues.

Is there anything in your iPlanet logs? I know people have suggested your MX
logs, but perhaps something can be found in iPlanet's? Also, do you have the
checkbox in the MX Admin checked to log slow running request after x amount
of seconds? Try lowering that value to generate a catalog of files that are
taking longer than they should be.

Just some thoughts.

Regards,
Dave.
