Witango-Talk: OS X App Server crashes under load

2003-01-28 Thread Jeffrey Bohmer
The latest production app server on OS X crashes every so often, when traffic is fairly high. The app server's FATAL signal is either a bus error or segmentation violation, usually the latter. If anyone has any ideas as to why this might happen, or things to try to prevent it, I would be happ

How heavy a load? I have tested it under heavy loads, and It did well, where it used to crash. There is still a point where it crashes when absolutely hammered, but it seems to be beyond the point of reasonable expectation. If the cache is off, it will crash under a lighter load. Looking at

The threadpoolsize acts different than you think it would. I have done alot of testing, and the more you add, the slower, and more buggy the server gets. It is worse on the mac than windows, but occurs on both. Try setting the threadpoolsize to 10. Also, before you test, open the terminal,
