Does any of these sound like reason. It would be great to get
pointed in the right direction.

Oh dear.
Are you doing your app logging to a database?
Is it the same database that your app uses?
Is it the same connection pool that your app uses?

This sounds like a lot of things. However, without borrowing your
crystal ball, I can't tell anything about the Quartz scheduler.
A couple of things:
1. Upgrade your Java to at least the latest 1.6.0_xx version
The one you are using has known server (and client) security issues.
2. Upgrade your Tomcat to at least the latest 6.xx version
There are many improvements and bug fixes.
3. [URGENT]
I understand that this problem is urgent for you. However, the people
here contribute time on a volunteer basis (I'm taking a break from
writing documentation for a new system). We'll try to help as time
allows, but if you need an SLA then you should purchase commercial support.
4. Possible root cause
I'm guessing (based on your partial listing of classes in a thread dump)
is that you either have a logging problem, a database connectivity
problem, or a Quartz scheduler problem.
Or all of the above.
If there was one problem, then I (guessing) would look to see if you're
logging via a Quartz scheduler job through log4j to a MySQL database.
Now that I've got my guess out of the way, here are some pointers.
a. Thread dumps
You said you've taken them, but have only posted snippets. Post a
complete thread dump inline (mailing list strips attachments). For your
own use, take several 3-10 seconds apart to see what's changing.
b. Check your database
It sounds like you have a connection leak. When this happens, how many
active connections do you have to your MySQL database?
c. Connection leak
As noted above, you may have a connections leak. Post your Resource
definition (hopefully it's in context.xml) with passwords and usernames
changed.
While you're at it, read:
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/jndi-resources-howto.html#JDBC_Data_Sources
In particular, note removeAbandoned and logAbandoned. These will impact
performance, so do it on a test system.

Tomcat hanging unexpectedly [URGENT]
There is a similar thread published a week ago. It can be caused
by almost anything, and my last suspect would be Tomcat it self.
Most of time, the cause is some programming error, like: -
missing step out of recursive loop - loading too many objects is
memory (for example, when using JPA where graph of objects are
all connected - so, when you load one object, all database is
read into memory) - some deadlock in multi-threaded
application...
How to discover:
1) Try to get a memory dump and check how your memory is being
used
2) Get a heap dump (stack trace, as well) or currently
running application when it is hang, and check for deadlocks
3) Use VisualVM to get a big picture of what the virtual machine is
doing
+ 1 here
Run this on a test environment, load up the system, and do heap dumps
and thread dumps.
4) Put the application running under profiler (like JRockit
Mission Control, or NetBeans profiler)
These are some ideas...

Hi,
We are using tomcat 6.0.26 on windows 2008 web server, with Jdk
1.6.32 installed on the server.
The server seems to be running smoothly most of the time, but
suddenly the memory used goes very high and tomcat stops
responding, the logs don't show any out of memory or thread
exceptions.
What could be causing this?
Regards, Ayush
Oh, and please do not top post. I had to bounce back and forth through
the message to figure out what's been said and where to reply.
. . . just my two cents
