I guess the real question is why are you concerned with when the requests are GC'd.
Left to it's own devices, GC usually only happens when the JVM is using almost all of the allocated memory. Therefore, the more memory allocated, the longer till GC and the longer GC will last. If you are trying to get it to run more often so that it takes less time, take a look at 1.4.2. --- Bill Barker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > At least in Tomcat, the HttpRequests aren't short-lived ;-). > If you are > using Sun's JVM, then I'd try -Xincgc first (otherwise, > consult your > vendor's docs for the correct option).
