Package: libc6 Version: 2.3.2.ds1-20 Severity: grave Tags: patch Justification: renders package unusable
Hello, I have investigated the Java VM locking problem more closely: (http://lists.debian.org/debian-glibc/2005/02/msg00080.html) Kevin A. Burton We're running a java application server thats highly multithreaded and we're noticing that the VM is locking hard after about 30 minutes when I increase the thread count. This is still a lot of threads (600 or so) but there's no reason the entire process should lock. It also won't respond to a kill -9... I've added the suggested two patches and identified one more from the RHEL3 glibc SRPM With these three patches I get no more Java VM lockups. Please consider applying these patches - a locking Java VM is not much fun when you need to run big J2EE applications.
