Dear Developers, Currently our Jenkins is not very responsive, the two CPUs are far below 10%, whereas Gerrit is working fast and fine. I already restarted tomcat6 (/etc/init.d/tomcat6 restart), but it didn't work out. Any ideas? Franz --

Dear Developers, I already read the tomcat logfiles, but didn't find anything promising. My current guess is, that there were some flawed build directories (build started, but did not finish) and the subsequent build tried to use the folder again. Currently I'm running a single job and put the

It seems that Findbugs is causing that issue. I have to figure out how much heap memory is currently used by the JVM. Am 17.09.2012 16:56, schrieb Zieris, Franz: > I asked our IT staff to downgrade our VM to one CPU, in order to narrow down > the possible sources of this behavior. > > I'll shutd

OK, is this a pure internal issue, or are there any chances that the hardware/external VM configuration is responsible for this? If the latter seems likely, could you briefly summarize your steps, so I can file a ticket for our IT staff? -Original Message- From: Stefan Rossbach [mailto:

Ok I read the JVM (Oracle Spec) JVM_DEFAULT_MAX_HEAP = Math.min(0.25 * totalMemory, 1 GB) What I do not understand, normally a JVM starts with approx 64 MB heap memory, increasing the heap as needed. Findbugs allocates much of memory. Since the Maxheap is set to 1GB it seems that the Garbage C
