Carl: you said that everything is copacetic when you run with a smaller heap, right? Well, run with that smaller heap, but then write a simply servlet/JSP/whatever that just allocates huge, say, byte[] buffers until it gets an OOME and verify that you get a heap dump when that happens. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAktp/JEACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PBI0ACgmDLJVxM5xDiN5UIFsqqKRj7i 2J8AoL8ENGsYxwudtFrLy+tZTzmr/rxC =4yC9 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
