Yes a couple of days ago we were.

Although we seem to be past them now and are dealing with the issue of WO not appearing to let go of the memory it uses and it having "broken pipe" issues.

It is not WO that is not letting go of the memory. It is the Java JVM. It is a JVM implementation issue, not a WebObjects issue.

The broken pipe is just a symptom of your application taking too long to process requests, aggravated by not dispatching requests concurrently. Fix the performance issue and this will go away.

Hello Owen;

its better to explicitly call System.gc() in WO App's. Whats the rule of thumb here in terms of how often, is there a better spot than others etc etc ?

It is only ever a hint, never a demand. I have resorted to this infrequently.

That's correct, but I think the problem arises that if it does decide to do a full-on garbage collect then it has a tendency to freeze all of the threads for a bit while it does it. This can lead to jittery responses from the application.

Are you actually getting "OutOfMemoryException"-s logged?

cheers.
