I am also facing the same problem on a Solaris 2.7. I have been using the tomcat 4.0.3 integrated with Apache through warp connector. I have allocated 384 max memory to tomcat out of 1GB total memory.
In my case all the JSP pages are compiled since the site is in production and all the pages has been accessed once and I believe the Tomcat will not compile the pages every time they are accessed. I have observed the tomcat memory usage. Tomcat allocates 32 MB of RAM when starts and this keeps on increasing till reaches 384 max memory and consequently tomcat crashes. Raj Saini
