Yeah, that's right. The application server is having 4 CPU's and top gives collective output for all the CPU's.

Re: Tomcat Server CPU utilization goes upto 400%
This is an old version so you might be see'ing gc issues. (but that is a wild guess). There isn't enough detail to debug, but when the situation arises - do the following - get thread dumps a look for "odd stuff" 1) kill -3 tomcat when tomcat is running OK - so you have a base line 2) Then when things are going bad kill -3 to get a stack trace of all the threads and look for what is running and "out of the ordinary" - typically you might need 2 or 3 dumps for a better comparision 3) When things get really slow - do a final stack trace (via kill -3) before you restart tomcat. We luck this trace will confirm any theories you saw in step 2. Good luck. -Tim Sumit Gaikaiwari wrote: Hello, We are using tomcat 5.0.25 on Red Hat Enterprise Linux server. There two applications in webapps. We are facing an issue from around 3-4 months where the CPU utilization by java process (tomcat) goes quite high: around 400% in every 4-5 days. The application gets very slow and tomcat needs to be restarted for normal operation. The output of top command is as below- [EMAIL PROTECTED] jakarta-tomcat-5.0.25]# top Tasks: 78 total, 1 running, 77 sleeping, 0 stopped, 0 zombie Cpu(s): 25.1% us, 0.1% sy, 0.0% ni, 74.5% id, 0.2% wa, 0.0% hi, 0.0% si Mem: 4086472k total, 2487676k used, 1598796k free, 217464k buffers Swap: 6094824k total,0k used, 6094824k free, 1811576k cached PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEMTIME+ COMMAND 1038 root 16 0 545m 244m 61m S 101 6.1 1156:22 java 1 root 16 0 2556 552 472 S0 0.0 0:01.17 init 2 root RT 0 000 S0 0.0 0:00.31 migration/0 Here is the status of active threads- Thread Status- [EMAIL PROTECTED] jakarta-tomcat-5.0.25]# ps -Le -o pid,user,s,lwp,pcpu,args | awk '$3 != "S" { print }' 1038 root R 1093 19.8 /usr/local/j2sdk1.4.2_12/bin/java -Xmx256m -Xms128m -Djava.awt.headless=true -Dsun.awt.font.advancecache=off -Djava.endorsed.dirs=/usr/local/jakarta-tomcat-5.0.25/common/endorsed -classpath /usr/local/j2sdk1.4.2_12/lib/tools.jar:/usr/local/jakarta-tomcat-5.0.25/ bin/bootstrap.jar:/usr/local/jakarta-tomcat-5.0.25/bin/commons-logging-a pi.jar -Dcatalina.base=/usr/local/jakarta-tomcat-5.0.25 -Dcatalina.home=/usr/local/jakarta-tomcat-5.0.25 -Djava.io.tmpdir=/usr/local/jakarta-tomcat-5.0.25/temp org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap start 20544 root R 20544 0.0 ps -Le -o pid,user,s,lwp,pcpu,args This was status at certain instant of time. After 5 hours from this instant, the utilization reached to 400% and also there were many threads which were using almost 150% of CPU time.

Please can any one tell me possible cause for this issue? This issue has become very critical and needs to be fixed out soon. - To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
