I've also had strange results when using -server with the VM with different applications. Also, you say you have an application which eats up memory? Is the application loading when Tomcat starts? Is your application loading tomcat? How is your application loaded? Is it a JSP application using your classes or is it an application using Servlets? Do you have log statements, and do you even know if your code is being ran before the crash (i.e. you are getting a logged result to know that it made it to your starting points.)?

Maybe it's apache, or another process on your server? >## CATALINA_OPTS="-Djava.awt.headless=true -Xmx256m" >## CATALINA_OPTS="$CATALINA_OPTS -XX:NewSize=64m -XX:MaxNewSize=64m" ## >-Xms128m -Xmx256m -XX:NewSize=64m -XX:MaxNewSize=64m ## >JAVA_OPTS="-server" Stick to JAVA_OPTS, rather than CATALINA_OPTS, for clarity. JAVA_OPTS='-Djava.awt.headless=true -Xmx256m' is valid, and I would think should work for you, unless your application is really resource-demanding. >I can, and will!! You guessed it, xmlparserv is a set of xml parsing >(sax and dom) tools. If you can, I suggest you use Xerces (free, ships with tomcat), as I bet it's much more recent, better performing than xmlparserv2.
