Thanks for the insight -- however, a thread or a process by any other name still smells the same when it is spawning out of control (it stinks ;-) Maybe you can help me understand what information the "px" command offers for solving this problem. Remember, when I use JDK 1.2 only one thread shows up, but if I switch to JDK 1.3 or JDK 1.4 the number of threads starts at 35 when I start Tomcat, then grows out of control as the website is used.

If this totally freaks you out, switch to green threads. George Sexton MH Software, Inc.

I have JDK1.2.2 working fine, but when I upgrade to JDK1.3 or JDK1.4 Tomcat starts spewing out processes and chews up all my memory (as seen by running "ps -ef | grep java" command), so I'm wondering if anyone is using this combination successfully.
