Ed Palazzo commented on JENKINS-13827: -------------------------------------- We continue to have this problem with OutOfMemory Exceptions. It happened again last night, which is about right... every one to two weeks. Has anyone had a chance to look at the heap dump? Thanks in advance. -ed- > Getting OutOfMemoryError after Jenkins has been running for several days > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: JENKINS-13827 > URL: https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-13827 > Project: Jenkins > Issue Type: Bug > Components: core > Environment: Jenkins 1.458 > Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES release 4 (Nahant Update 4) > 32-bit hardware and OS > java 1.6.0_17 > perforce plugin 1.3.8 > 8 virtual CPUs > 16 GB total available memory on the system > Reporter: Ed Palazzo > > After running from anywhere from one to two weeks, Jenkins will appear to be > frozen. Examination of the logs shows the following error: > java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: GC overhead limit exceeded > I've done numerous stack dumps, and it is fairly inconsistent as to what is > happening when the error occurs. This last time I did a heap dump per the > instructions on this page: > https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/I%27m+getting+OutOfMemoryError > The heap is available for download via FTP here: > ftp://Jenkins:maqla...@kpsg.kofax.com/heap.bin.gz > It's about 300M compressed (~1.6GB uncompressed). I had a hard time running > jhat against the heap -- maybe you'll have more luck. > I should let you know that I have 565 jobs (all modules of different > branches) configured on this system. I have one slave running builds, with > another two machines on the way. > Let me know what else I can provide to help debug. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
