Thanks again for all of our suggestions. The Eclipse Memory Analyzer Tool looks very interesting and helpful. It also calls out the AVA_OPT -XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError to auto generate a heap dump for me. I was originally looking for a way to automatically generate a thread dump, but this will be extremely helpful as well.

Another alternative to JHAT is Sun's new free tool, Visual VM. I think JHAT is part of its underlying technology. Visual VM now ships with Sun JDK 1.6.0_07 and later, and is available via download separately from https://visualvm.dev.java.net/

I believe that VisualVM will eventually replace Sun's Jconsole, as it has all of Jconsole's functionality as well as heap dump, thread dump, and basic profiler functionality. It seems to have some of the functionality that is in Eclipse MAT. Not sure of the pro's and con's of one vs. the other though. I plan on looking at both.

Thanks again,
Brian

VisualVM... damn its nice...
