Hi, Recently my system (SUSE7.2, running Tomcat4.0b6, Oracle8.1.7) has come crashing down around it's knees a few times, completely locking out all input, even terminals (gasp horror - restart button needed) - needless to say it's a big cause of concern. As a result of the problems I've been looking at the various programmes running on the machine using top and other such packages. The line of concern is the following one:
root 3105 3032 0 18:28 pts/3 00:00:00 /usr/java/jdk1.3.1/bin /i386/native_threads/java -Xms12m -Xmx24m -classpath ./../bin/bootstrap.jar: /usr/local/java/lib/tools.jar:/home/spiderma/webapps/connection/WEB-INF/ classes -Dcatalina.home=./.. org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap start Other system tools indicate that this is using approximately 2.7MB of system memory. This wouldn't be such a concern except there are *43* of these processes. However, when I shut down Tomcat I barely free 32MB so it doesn't seem to be a huge problem. What I'm wondering is - should there be loads of these processes? I am using a Connection pool (Karl Moss) but it shouldn't be managing anything near like 43 connections and I'm pretty confused, but this could be it? The system runs fine most of the time and maybe it's not even this but I'd love to get the processes thing explained, if only to keep out system admin happy :) Thanks in advance, Dave -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Troubles with the list: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
