Another thing I don't understand. When I start up tomcat through the services, and in task manager I show the VM Size column, I see that it is about the same size as what I set in the command line: -server -Xrs -Xms356M -Xmx356M. And the crash usually occurs when Mem Usage column approaches VM Size. VM Size never grows larger.
However when I ran tomcat under the profiler (OptimizeIt 6) with those same options, my VM size grow much larger, it reached up to 1GB. Also I finally saw the Mem Usage go up and down up to 800,000k and back down the 300,000k that I noticed. And tomcat never crashed. So it must be a different setting, but I don't see what. Although I did notice that in bat file that Optimize It 6 created for me they had: rem (Optional) Increase the GCOP value if you get some "GCOP buffer too small" rem errors with the Profiler (size is in Mb) set GCOPSIZE=5 set JAVA_PARAMS=-DGCOPSIZE=%GCOPSIZE% Anyone knows what that is? Can that be the fix to my problem? Chanan Braunstein Knovel Corp.

That behaviour is jvm and os dependend.
