Which memory are you talking about: - Java Heap If this doesn't go down after a load peak where the load of the heap was near the limit you have a problem. (In your test it did get down) To solve that, you have to find a reproducable test that exposes the problem and run a profiler with that.
- OS Memory as reported by the task manager This will never ever go down until restart. > -----Original Message----- > From: Chanan Braunstein [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Thursday, April 15, 2004 5:24 PM > To: 'Tomcat Users List' > Subject: RE: Memory Leak > > > Well, I am not sure why tomcat crashes in that case, why > isn't it reducing > the memory over time.
