The threading model on linux is such that each new java thread spawns a new process.
This is normal behaviour with Java on linux; it's not an Orion thing. There is no memory leak in Orion or Java. If there is memory being consumed, I would start looking to be sure you're freeing up resources in your code (i.e., closing JDBC connections, etc.). If you're running orion as a daemon on an ISP's unix machine, then I wouldn't be surprised if they kill it just as part of policy, unless they specifically permit user-run daemons. cheers, Chris korosh wrote: > Why does orion 1.3.8 runnin off of linux spawning bunch of Java processes > where as on Solaris there is only one Java Process? > > Also, it seems that the java process eventually consume so much memory that > my ISP shuts down the process. > > Is there a memory leak with Orion 1.3.8 running on Linux with sun jdk 1.3.0 > ??? > > > >
