GC issue has nothing to do with Tomcat per say. It is the memory footprint of your application which will dictate GC behavior. In any case, if your application is facing some memory bottle-neck, it is better to pay attention on the percentage your JVM is spending in GCing your application. If that percentage is very high, say ~90%, that means your application is facing sever memory constrain, your application is almost stalled as JVM has been trying very high to recover some space.

Full GC was Running 1/Hour. Can you please assist how to check the % of memory utilization by GC through JConsole or any other process. Subhro, please reply inline. People prefer that way here. It makes reading the thread easier. I was talking about percentage utilization of CPU Time by GC Threads. Getting % Memory usage is also very helpful. There is a number of way to check Memory utilization, stats: - JConsole Memory tab. - Console output. You will have to turn on the JVM flag to dump these details. - -XX:+PrintGCDetails -- This also give time spent in a particular GC operation. - Thread dump( Kill -3 Unix machine) Also, you can get some fine tuned information about time usage by your application threads, using these flags: - -XX:+PrintGCApplicationConcurrentTime - -XX:+PrintGCApplicationStoppedTime Out of curiosity, how did you get this information Full GC was Running 1/Hour. I guess that is too few run. Thanks Regards, Subhro Paul =-=-= Notice: The information contained in this e-mail message and/or attachments to it may contain confidential or privileged information.
