My ActiveMQ 4.01 installaton eats memory. I have an ActiveMQ setup running on a single box. I just use it for local messages (publish/subscribe). Persistance is turned off (at least I think it is). I have no associated database. The installation is a straight out of the box. (Windows 2003, Java 1.5.0_07b03). I start up ActiveMQ using the command options
persistent=false useJmx=true in the command line. It seesm to run wonderfully. OK. so what I ought to have is a simple mesage broker. No problem. It should stay running for weeks, months, years. But according to Windows it gradually uses up memory. It starts at maybe 30Mb, and gradually increases - it's currently at about 190Mb (it's been running for a week with message numbers in the thousands, not hundreds of thousands). There's an option in the xml config to limit memory use. But why should memory get consumed? What happens to it? If I limit the memory will it start to swap (I really, really don't want that). thanks for any sage-like advice, Simon (in Sydney where it is winter) -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/ActiveMQ-eats-memory-tf2088958.html#a5757487 Sent from the ActiveMQ - User forum at Nabble.com.
