Hey guys,

Alright, so I have a server I am monitoring 8 Opteron dual cores, 28GB of ram, 
and a decent amount of SCSI HD space, not in a raid configuration though. 
Essentially it uses Jboss application server with a program that writes SQL 
statements commits them.etc.etc to the database(Sybase). The database is not 
being maxed at all. Although this server is for some reason utilizing tons of 
swap space. So we say okay it is maxing out 28GB of RAM? It's not as it is 
utilizing around 14GB , with another 14GB committed. I have no idea why it is 
swapping so much, it doesn't make much sense when it has 14GB of memory free. 
It's almost almost as though it doesn't know how to utilize the remaining 
memory, yet somedays it will use up to around 20GB. When it get's into heavy 
load it will not use the extra memory it has, if we lower the available memory 
to it (as it is not using it) we get memory exception errors. 28GB committed 
has been the only way it is working properly.

I am not a Jboss expert in anyway, I monitor the performance and utilization of 
the servers. Any advice or input would be appreciated. If you need more info, 
I'd be happy to provide it.
