RE: [cfaussie] RE: Coldfusion JRun Max handler threads setting
Barry, for what it's worth, I'll offer some more thoughts. You're on the right track. First, I'll concur with Kai and your observation that this is about the possibility of the heap being high, thus constraining the space left for creating stacks. As Kai noted, it's counterintuitive because we all assume outofmemory means out of heap, but it doesn't. Yours is due to running out of stack space, not heap. As such, yes, lowering the stack size can help, but as you note, if your config's default is 256k (which others should note as Kai said is dependent on jvm, os, and architecture) so you're leery of lowering it more. You can, but just watch out for errors due to stackoverflow. It's a delicate balance. You're right to focus first on just lowering the heap. Especially if you have some means to have monitored and confirmed that you're not having outofmemory errors due to running out of heap. (And you can't use as a gauge whether you've hit the heap max, as shown in some monitoring tool, because you usually will. The question is whether when the system did a GC, did it recover a lot. If so, and consistently, then you can afford to lower the heap. Just watch out for possible new oom: heap space errors.) But then there is also the matter, as you brought up originally, of lowering your thread use. As much as the max threads may seem to be the issue, it may not be. Rather, there are MANY things that create threads in a CF/JRun environment. It could be datasource connections. Do you have them limited at all? Timing out? Even then, there have been bugs where they've not timed out when they should. What CF version are you running? And what hotfixes? And are you sure you have the right ones? (It's easy to have mis-implemented 8.0 hot fixes on an 8.0.1 server, and vice versa, for instance.) You can also enabled JRun metrics to track the various thread pools, which can help identify if something is getting out of whack. You can also monitor thread use from the jrun.exe process, from the OS perspective, which can help. The good news is that this problem can be solved, generally, once you have a clearer idea of what the problem is (and is not). /charlie From: cfaussie@googlegroups.com [mailto:cfaus...@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Barry Chesterman Sent: Monday, April 12, 2010 12:03 AM To: cfaussie@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: [cfaussie] RE: Coldfusion JRun Max handler threads setting Thanks for the replies. I will do some load tests with adjusting the queued threads setting, from what I've read, the 'unable to create new native thread' errors are related to having a large heap size (which we do) and the operating system not being able to spawn new threads (as an OS thread is spawned to keep track of each JVM thread). We previously had standard 'out of memory' errors which were in fact related to a heap size that was too small. Kai, we use JVM 1.4 at the moment, and thread stack size is by default 256KB, so I don't think i'll look at adjusting that as 256KB is supposed to be pretty low, Apparently JVM 1.5 upwards use 1MB :O! We have our max handler threads (wait queue) at 500, and our active threads at 25, I'll have a go at decreasing the heap size and max handler threads and do some load testing.

[cfaussie] Re: Coldfusion JRun Max handler threads setting
Thanks Charlie, Your point about other things such as datasources creating threads is a good one, and yes our environment does generate a lot of database connections. I don't believe it's limited, and I'll find out what the timeouts etc are. We are on Coldfusion version 7.03 with JRun 4 updater 6, using JVM 1.4 (but this is all soon to be updated). I'll see if I can monitor threads, do you have any suggestions on how best to monitor threads with either FusionReactor or JRun logging? Thanks Barry.

RE: [cfaussie] Re: Coldfusion JRun Max handler threads setting
Glad to help. As for more on the metrics, just google jrun metrics and you'll find ample resources. It's just a modification to the jrun.xml file. Of course, be careful with that. Be sure to restart CF after you tinker with it so that if there's a problem, you know right away. Various resources (especially the jrun docs discussion of metrics, and comments on those pages) will show more than just the standard jrpp/web threads. You want to look at as many as you can see. You can also monitor thread use from the OS perspective (using Task Manager or Perfmon on Windows, or their equivalents in *nix), both to monitor and log thread use over time, all of which can help track down problems related to this.

Re: [cfaussie] Re: Coldfusion JRun Max handler threads setting
Apache JMeter OpenSTA Paessler Webserver Stress Tool (http://www.paessler.com/webstress) and there are a bunch of other larger (and more expensive) commercial solutions like HP LoadRunner or Borland's SilkPerformer. I always wanted to look closer into Grinder (that originally has been developed by some guys for BEA WebLogic), heard a lot of good about it - but it's not quite a point-click-and-shoot tool but rather code-centric and I'm not yet sure how well it works with CF/JRun.

Re: [cfaussie] Re: Coldfusion JRun Max handler threads setting
I use WAPT: http://www.loadtestingtool.com Commercial software but AFAIK a load testing tool is a basic bit of a server-side developer's kit. WAPT is easy to set up and definitely worth the price. Windows only, but I run pretty heavy test loads under Parallels without issue.

Re: [cfaussie] email attachments
An attachment is a file. If I recall correctly you cannot attach non files as files to emails :) Maybe someone else knows how to do it, but I think you need a actual file. Also, cfmail does not send emails immediately, it spools them, so the path to the file needs to exist for a bit after you run the cfmail. Is there some reason you cannot write it to the drive than use the path? -- /Kevin Pepperman They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety. - Benjamin Franklin -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups cfaussie group.

Re: [cfaussie] email attachments
It is still a file, even if it is only in memory, ColdFusion just added a new attribute to cfmailparam that uses the cfdocument content that is probably actually writing a binary file that attaches to the email. I'll have to test it myself, but I'll bet that behind the scene CF/Java is writing that file somewhere, CF emails go to a mail spool first so is it writing to the spool with the file embedded?. I could be wrong, ACF has new tricks all the time-- But I wouldn't think that it would write a new file into memory each time you did this and then keep it in memory until it was sent, it just sounds too fragile and unreliable. If this is critical data, I would do some testing first to make sure you are not creating files somewhere you don't want them, and also test a failure somehow to see what happens in worst case situations.. A file is still a file in memory, it is still a file no matter where it resides. addn: Ben Nadels' website never ceases to amaze and amuse me.. his coding style really is what CFML is all about-- simple solutions to everyday problems that everyone can use understand. Ben rocks!. -- /Kevin Pepperman They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety. - Benjamin Franklin -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups cfaussie group.

I'd love to be there, but I'm scrambling to get everything ready before I leave for cf.Objective() on Monday, so I may not be able to make it. I'll let you know.
