Hey all,

Hoping one of you guys who are CF folks but also know something on JVM 
and heap memory management (and how CF affects heap usage) can shed some 
light on my situation.

Basically my server (CF9 on Linux) has been having heap memory issues 
from the get-go. And this is after moving everything from a 
like-configured server running Railo, where it was worse.

 From what I can tell, a server's old-gen heap space should be emptying 
out significantly with every GC run - mine, not so much. From the time 
the service is restarted the old-gen area slowly creeps upwards in 
usage, and the GC runs only help with what I can best describe as the 
usage since the last GC.

I'm not a Java/JVM guy by any means, but best I can tell this is 
aberrant behavior - using the FusionReactor demo on their own site, 
pointing at a server they have running with tasks kicking around to show 
activity for the demo, their old-gen area climbs steadly up up up to the 
max, and then plummets to a small fraction of the total area. Completely 
different than what I see with my server.

I've got FusionReactor running and have been trying to puzzle out what 
the cause of this behavior is for a while now. I've lately been doing 
some furious recoding of portions of my codebase, to try and improve 
performance and more specifically, attempt to head off any memory 
leaky/intensive code usage. I've made some small progress, but nothing 
substantial - now my server just takes longer to get to an unusable 
point due to heap levels than it did before, the old-gen heap levels 
take longer to inch their way up to the max allocation and stay there.

Is this a problem that one's CF codebase can significantly contribute 
to, or cause outright? Or more of a JVM config issue? Or both?
