Well, I am not sure why tomcat crashes in that case, why isn't it reducing the memory over time. I might add that I noticed that even during low traffic periods the memory won't go back down. Even if I take one off the cluster (hardware load balancer), so no traffic is going to it at all the memory doesn't go down.

The vm is not returning free memory to the os. So the memory as seen by the os will alway be the maximum value that the jvm ever needed during the runtime. The other option that explains your observertion is that you test fails to expose the memory leak. > -----Original Message----- > From: Chanan Braunstein [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Thursday, April 15, 2004 4:27 PM > To: 'Tomcat Users List' > Subject: Memory Leak > > but then GC kicks in and drops down back to where it was when I > started the test.
