Hi Folks,
I wonder if someone could give me some advice on a potential problem we
are experiencing with tomcat.
It appears that after tomcat has been idle for some time, a first
request for a page or service can take longer than usual to load or
respond. Our particular case is that we are running an application
under tomcat that offers some web services, and the calling client is
timing out before it gets a response. The response /is/ eventually
forthcoming, but extremely delayed.
One possible cause that we're working on is that tomcat is unloading
from memory some cached information, when it has been idle for some
time, and the delay of this first request is caused by it picking back
up again. Is this a likely scenario? If not, does anyone have any
suggestions as to what might be happening? If so, is there a way that I
can tell tomcat not to clear whatever caches it might have cleared?
Thanks very much for any help you can offer.
Cheers,
--
Richard
