I am not sure what a live reinit is, but I doubt it, I just have an exploded webapp directory with jar files in the lib directory, should be ok.

Why will it never go down? Won't that cause over time in tomcat (as indeed is what I am seeing)? Chanan Braunstein Knovel Corp.

(In your test it did get down) To solve that, you have to find a reproducable test that exposes the problem and run a profiler with that. - OS Memory as reported by the task manager This will never ever go down until restart. > -----Original Message----- > From: Chanan Braunstein [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Thursday, April 15, 2004 5:24 PM > To: 'Tomcat Users List' > Subject: RE: Memory Leak > > > Well, I am not sure why tomcat crashes in that case, why isn't it > reducing the memory over time.
