Hi, I'm using Apache 1.3.26 and 3 tomcat 4.0.4 instances with AJP13 & loadbalancing . Our application is a CMS where all the published articles are generated offline as JSP-Files, one jsp per article.
We had hige problems with the memory footprint. Due to the fact that every jsp is generated as a class and there are about 200 new artices per day the permanent segment of the JVM heap gets filled with all the classes, and I get an OutOfMemoryError. My workaround for now is setting -XX:PermSize and --XX:MapPermSize to higher values, but this just delays application hang-up. With 64 megs of permSize our Server had an approx. uptime of 1 day now it's about 3-4 days. Is there any way to unload jsp-Files (unload the class) ? llap, julian
