one question?
your tomcat does run more than a day, so i assume that he is a production
system.
memory leak in javac is only affected, if you compile a jsp page.
so?
how many times, you change your jsp pages?
if you don't change them, and memory usage increase.
it is possible a memory leak in your application.
here a simply howto to use jikes.
1. Install jikes
2. Changing conf/web.xml to following:
<!-- If you wish to use Jikes to compile JSP pages: -->
<!-- Set the init parameter "compiler" to "jikes". Define -->
<!-- the property "-Dbuild.compiler.emacs=true" when starting Tomcat --
<!-- by adding the above to your CATALINA_OPTS environment variable. --
<!-- If you get an error reporting that jikes can't use UTF8 encoding, -->
<!-- try setting the init parameter "javaEncoding" to "ISO-8859-1". -->
<servlet>
<servlet-name>jsp</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServlet</servlet-class>
<init-param>
<param-name>compiler</param-name>
<param-value>jikes</param-value>
</init-param>
<init-param>
<param-name>logVerbosityLevel</param-name>
<param-value>WARNING</param-value>
</init-param>
<load-on-startup>3</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
3. Define build.compiler as above noted
4. Setting a env variable named BOOTCLASSPATH to jre/lib/rt.jar
