Eric,
If you have upgraded java along with tomcat then yes that it is very probable. You can restrict how much memory java can use however, if it is consuming too much memory. -Xmx and –Xms startup parameters. However, you may be jeopardizing performance. In this case you can only add more memory. It may also be leaking. Java is a pig get used to it. =========================== Thank You; Chris Cheltenham Technology Services The School District of Philadelphia Work # 215-400-5025 Cell # 215-301-6571 From: Eric Robinson [mailto:eric.robin...@psmnv.com] Sent: Friday, December 22, 2017 2:04 PM To: Tomcat Users List <users@tomcat.apache.org> Subject: RE: Is it Normal for Tomcat 8 to Use 20-80% More Memory Than Tomcat 6?
