Hi
I've got a system with about 150 virtual hosts running on standalone Tomcat 4.
The system is behaving as follows:
After about 24 hrs it throws an outofmemory exception, but without maxing out memory. I've run extensive profiling, as per QM's suggestion, and have found that the applications do not leak memory.
Here's what I've noticed, though:
If I hammer one host it performs fine. No memory leak, no thread/handle leaks.
If I hammer sequentially at all hosts, it throws the exception by the time I hit host 80 or so.
The only thing is that I check used memory throughout the process, and it never exceeds it's limits - so it's not actually running out of memory! Threads and handles are also fine.
So what's going on? Is there some kind of maximum number of virtual hosts that Tomcat can handle? Will creating multiple tomcat instances help the problem?
Above all - What is Tomcat running out of if it's not memory, threads or handles?
Finally, I have 3 contexts per host - would this impact anything? These contexts are defined in server.xml - would it be better if they were in the web.xml of each app?
Any help would be appreciated.
