We use Jenkins CI for a large web application. It is installed on a Windows 2003 server and is working out great for us. Recently, we've been directed to switch our installation to a Windows 2008 server and we are now running into problems when running unit tests related to Hibernate and JEE entities. The tests run very slowly and we eventually run out of PermGen space, Increasing PermGen space via Java Options for that job solves that problem, but the tests still run very slowly and eventually we run out of Heap space. Increasing heap space solves *that* problem, but the tests still run exceptionall slowly. On our Windows 2003 server the job runs in less than a minute. On Windows 2008 it runs for literally hours, and only after increaing PermGen and Heap space by a lot. I should also note that we don't have any advanced memory settings on the 2003 server.
The two installations are exactly the same: Tomcat 7.0, Ant 1.94, and the latest Jenkins war. I've even set up the same Jenkins configuration on my laptop, and it runs without any issues. I'm thinking this must be an issue with our Windows 2008 server? We have plenty of disk space and memory. I've even doubled the page file size, to no avail. This is a real vexing problem for us and I'm wondering if anyone has faced similar issues. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Jenkins Users" group.
