Hi Paul, I don't know if this is relevant in your case, but I've had this problem before on other FreeBSD versions (4.7-STABLE) and fixed it as follows:
FreeBSD has kernel level user process limits, including direct memory allocation If the user limits are too low for your jboss instance together with your application, jboss reports an OutOfMemory error. This can be fixed by increasing the kernel user process limits by adding the following lines to the kernel config file and rebuilding the kernel. The example below limits the user to 384Mb of memory, but this can be increased to what you need, options MAXDSIZ="(384*1024*1024)" options MAXSSIZ="(384*1024*1024)" options DFLDSIZ="(384*1024*1024)" Of course, if this has already been done, the memory limits are high enough, and the problem still persists, the problem lies elsewhere. It is however more than likely not a jboss problem in this case. Hope this helps.
