Yeah, those sort of setups suck because you can't just get in and do what you need to. The problem with a couple isolated readings of memory usage without a reference point is you really have no clue if that amount of memory usage is normal or not for your app. No one here can tell you that because every app is different. Some people probably have servers that never see more than 400 Megs of memory assigned to Jrun, other people here probably are used to each serer consuming 2 Gigs per instance on a regular basis. I monitor and log my memory usage (With SeeFusion) so I can get average values and trending and I know my servers sit at about 700 Megs to 1 Gig depending on traffic. You pretty much need to have baseline statistics to know if a given value is higher or lower than the normal for your app. Anything else is just guessing. You also never told me what your -Xms and -Xmx JVM args were. The reason I asked is because some people (like myself) set them equal to the same number (Though it appears you don't). This means that the amount of memory that jrun gets allocated by the OS is immediately granted (and shows up in Windows process monitor as being "used" by jrun) even though the heap may only be partially used. At that point, looking at the Windows process list will do you no good since it only shows you how much memory the OS has reserved for CF, not how much is being used. The server monitor will show you how much memory is in use without turning on memory tracking. ~Brad ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?
