Hi All,
Thank you for the response Christopher .
* A single request, or a single *type* of request?
A single request (http/https) that is hit once per day
* Does it increase as the request is processed, or does the JVM take that 4GiB
immediately upon startup?
The tomcat process was started 3 months back , but the memory has
increased gradually to 4GB though it does not process requests continuously
(one request per day).
* The first thing to do would be to post the effective command-line options
that are being used when launching your JVM. One of the easiest ways to do that
is to run "ps | grep catalina" which will give you the full command-line for
the process.

Does it increase as the request is processed, or does the JVM take that 4GiB
immediately upon startup?
Remember that the heap is only a part of the JVM's memory usage.
Examples of things that don't go into the heap are the native memory used by
the JVM itself (thinking of the JVM itself as a usual OS process), stacks for
each native thread, compiled Java code produced by the JIT, and various I/O
buffers.
> Is there a way to track the native memory of a tomcat process ?
The native memory of a Java application is very difficult to inspect, etc.
unless you are *very* familiar with JVMs, the memory manager being used by your
JVM, and the platform and architecture on which the JVM is running.
The first thing to do would be to post the effective command-line options that
are being used when launching your JVM. One of the easiest ways to do that is
to run "ps | grep catalina" which will give you the full command-line for the
process.
That will show any memory parameters you may have specified on the JVM at
launch time, which will definitely affect the amount of native memory your JVM
process might end up taking up.
