Make sure the RedHat system is actually *USING* this much memory, and what process(es) are the big memory users. A leaf system will typically run far fewer processes than even a "light" RedHat install, and the bulk of memory on most dedicated boxes is frequently used as a disk cache (which will not be required for leaf). - -- Charles Steinkuehler [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.0 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFE2h0HLywbqEHdNFwRAiCbAKC8Zz96bHfuvOBG6yUeG+aAoLVsRQCfRn2t NlIRyp4zqhx5d1nNHKNiapI= =E1sN -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
