One solution may be to upgrade to a later JDK and tomcat. Not sure if that will help but I know that there is a 3.2.4 release of tomcat and earlier versions may have issues with NT.

The memory usage seems to touch 50+ MB in 2000 Server but it drops down to 30 MB soon. But, this does not happen in NT. The memory keeps on increasing and there is a point in time when Tomcat occupies *all* the available memory. We are taking care of *garbage collecting* the objects frequently(by calling Runtime.gc()). Is there any other way by which we can have some kind of control over the usage of memory? Do we have to install a patch for NT (if something like this is available)? NT Server: ---------- PIII 500 MHz, 256MB RAM, 40GB HDD 2000 Server: ------------ PIII 700 MHz, 128MB RAM, 20GB HDD Tomcat: ------- Version 3.2.1 JDK: ---- Sun's JDK 1.3 Any suggestions, pointers are appreciated.
