A new issue with this. I'm running on a Ubuntu server with 1000 gigs of ram - this has been enough in the past for dozens of php apps - however I'm finding with each jar I spin up on the server, it uses ~ 84mb each. At this rate it will become expensive to constantly create new apps.
PHP's memory usage seems to be dictated by traffic, not by how many websites you have running, is Java's memory use different? I am using supervisor + nginx to serve the Clojure Uberjars - is there anything I can do to make this more efficient / not increase with each new site? Is there any technology I should look into, or practices I should implement for this? Being able to run many websites on one server is a critical issue for me... Anyone have any advice? Thanks!
