Chuck,

Thanks for the reply.

I was attempting to see if anyone had problems with 64 bit Java and 64 bit Slackware like I have been having and figured out a work around.

I agree the settings are heavily dependent on the application.

We have plenty of memory.

It was suggested on a Java list that I add 'System.addShutdownHook(Thread)' to see if I can distinguish between exit() and halt() or some form of JVM abort. I should get to that later today but am looking for all the ammunition I can get to beat this problem.

Thanks,

Carl

Has anyone successfully used Tomcat with Slackware 64 and Sun's 64 bit
Java?  If so, what were your Java options, particularly the ones
relating to GC?

Appropriate heap sizing, choice of GC algorithm, and other GC-related parameters are almost entirely dependent on the characteristics of *your* webapps and processing requirements; unless someone has an identical set of webapps and identical load patterns, anyone else's settings are irrelevant.

You will need to insure that the total active process space (of which the Java heap is only a part) does not exceed the available RAM on the system, or you'll get into page thrashing pretty quickly.
