This is very urgent. I have a ticker application written in Java, that accesses oracle 9i database in Linux. It gets data from database in every 2 minutes. When as many as 10 ticker clients are accessing database together for 30 minutes, oracle eventually dies. Ticker gets data from database thru Tomcat, on examination I found that each time memory utilization for Oracle increases with database access. It starts with 5% mem utilizations and increases - in every 2 minutes - 6%, 7% etc, for each database access from clients. When it reaches some 30% oracle slows down and ticker apllication also slows down. Does anyone of you have a quick solution - Also why oracle not relasing memory after database access ?
