this might be a bit off topic, but if you want to profile your app in tomcat, Sun 
Research has an experimental VM called JFluid. http://research.sun.com/projects/jfluid/
 
it is basically the jdk1.4.2_03 vm with hooks for profiling. it might help track down 
GC and memory issues for those who don't have a license of OptimizeIt.

Yes - and I suggested that one could try it out, just for kicks..! ;)

Most definately - but Sun's VMs have been doing this for some time
(always?), and thus the gc() diff is interesting on this particular VM, at
least.

Okay? Expected? I don't get that. Can you point me to a email-subject of
one of those threads? Or several?!

Thanks for info, anyway!
