Hello,

During stress testing of our application the Tomcat java.exe process
keeps growing in both memory size and number of threads used.   Our test
is basically to repeatedly log in to our authentication servlet.  We are
using the same login over and over.  I added logic to track the previous
HttpSession object and invalidate it every time the same user logs in
with a new session.  This did not fix the memory problem.  The servlet
being tested only allocates local variables which should be cleaned up
after a given request completes.

Are there some configurations I need to add or check?   Any ideas as to
why the Tomcat process would keep growing?   Is there something I need
to do to ensure garbage collection is run properly?

Any help would be appreciated.

We are running Tomcat 3.2.3 with the isapi redirector with IIS on
Windows 2000.

Thanks,
Keith
