Hello, I have tomcat 5.5.9 running on CentOS 4.8, I have to restart my tomcat instance every alternate day and after every 2 or 3 restarts I can see a high cpu utilization (i.e. almost double of the normal) whereas there is no change in application code and connectivity. The utilization remain high until I restart tomcat instance, I tried comparing manager/jmxproxy output when things works fine and when high utilization happens but didn't find any significant difference which could lead to high processor utilization. Kindly suggest possible reasons or steps to investigate.
Thanks,
