Just a quick update :

I set NewRatio=3 and total GC time on the application server is now about 30% 
less than before.

The JVM performs more minor GCs (which was something to be expected, since the 
new generation now has less heap space), but the total minor GC time has not 
increased.  Also, it performs much fewer major GCs, and while the time for each 
full GC is a little longer than before (which was also expected, since the heap 
space allocated to the old generation has increased), the overall time spent in 
major GCs is less.

So it looks like this setting did do some good.  I still don't know whether the 
original problem (full GCs all the time) will reappear, but will post again 
when I have something of interest to report.

Thanks again.
C.
