Hi, and thanks for responses, I don't think we are using sendfile, to be honest, I've had no involvement in development of the code, I'm just requested to look after the server.
I'm going to try and work out how to read thread dumps, hopefully this will help, I'm finding my X11 connection too slow for J-Profiler to be usable. I apologise for not being to Savvy with my environment versions I get a bit confused with all the different Java environments like JDK/JRE/SDK/J2SE/J2EE etc.... The version of java executed by Tomcat that consumes CPU is .... /usr/java/bin/java -version java version "1.3.1_14" Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.3.1_14-b03) Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.3.1_14-b03, mixed mode) Tomcat is version 4.1 I'll see if moving version's to 1.3.1_20 changes things. I can reproduce similar behavior to live environment on dev consuming an entire CPU by running Apache Benchmark to simulate 20 concurrent sessions requesting the homepage 10000 times..... ./ab -c20 -n 10000 http://<url><tomcat port>/ Something else I noticed in my Live envrionment is that Oracle is hogging all the memory and tomcat is being forced into swap. I'll crack on with investigations and post to group if I find anything worth sharing. Many thanks again, Mark. On 24/07/07, Caldarale, Charles R <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

The 1.3.1 leg is up to _20 and even that is unsupported on everything other than Solaris 8 (falls into the "Vintage Support Period"). Do you have the required Solaris patches installed? Also, shouldn't that be a JDK, not a JRE? > The server is running Oracle, Tomcat, Apache 2.2 and a Content > Management System, Operating system is Solaris 8 running on sun4u Sun > Fire V240 with 4GB of RAM. What Tomcat version? Current ones require a 1.4 or 1.5 JRE. > Every so often the java process for Tomcat consumes an entire CPU, and > requires Tomcat to be killed, and then restarted, this is happened > quiet load with only a couple of HTTP requests coming through every > second.

You can't set it larger than whatever the maximum contiguous virtual space for a process is, but that's the only consideration. Regardless, that's unlikely to be your problem. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
