Sorry to chip in here, and I know you guys are busy and so on, but it's been down all day I think. (At least my day - CET) Not that I (personally) require anyone to permanently check this, especially on a Saturday, but would it be possible setup Nagios or for example purchase services from Pingdom (0) (cheap + easy to setup) so whoever is in charge of the server gets an SMS when it's down. And what about installing Mediawiki? It has to be more stable when wikipedia uses it. And the issue system has been down too. :-( Can't the Confluence people help you guys? I mean, it looks bad for them as well when their software constantly has hickups. It's not like the current performance makes a great case study. /rant Cheers, Till 0, http://www.pingdom.com/

I think there's something else at play here, possibly conflicts within the same Tomcat context, or even JVM params. For what it's worth, back at USC the IT department setup a Confluence server for by other departments/classes. It never had a very high load (I think my class was the only one that used it), but it was constantly going down. At one point it was bad enough that the professor just told everybody to write everything in a text editor, including edits to existing pages (just in case), and batch everything up until the next time the server was available.
