I have a web app that has been running on Tomcat 7.0.21 with APR 1.4.2 and Tomcat Native 1.1.20 on 64-bit Java 1.6.0.23 on CentOS Linux.
I upgraded half of my servers to Tomcat 7.0.23 and left the other half at 7.0.21. I copied the modified server.xml, context.xml and web.xml files from the 7.0.21 directories to the 7.0.23 directories, so the configurations are identical. The 7.0.21 servers have on average about 10000 file descriptors open. The 7.0.23 servers have on average about 15000 file descriptors open. These numbers are what I get from running this shell command: ls -l /proc/[pid]/fd | wc -l All of the servers are getting about the same amount of traffic. The only difference is the Tomcat version. Can anyone explain why Tomcat 7.0.23 would have 50% more file descriptors open? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
