I have installed jenkins on a fedora core 17 linux server. When I start jenkins it seems to take a ton of ram (12GB+). I start jenkins with the command.
I am using open jdk 1.7 start command is /usr/bin/java -Djava.awt.headless=true -DXmx4g -XX:MaxPermSize=128m -DJENKINS_HOME=/var/lib/jenkins -jar /usr/lib/jenkins/jenkins.war --logfile=/var/log/jenkins/jenkins.log --webroot=/var/cache/jenkins/war --httpPort=8080 --ajp13Port=8009 --debug=5 --handlerCountMax=100 --handlerCountMaxIdle=20 It doesn't seem reasonable to me. Maybe I am doing something wrong? I only have 5 builds setup... <https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-Ofheh_L4EgY/UGxasgpqtcI/AAAAAAAAA2Q/V38CC-q1Jvo/s1600/jenkinsTop.png>
