Tomcat usually doesn't shut down nicely (as evidenced by the "pausing" of connectors in your log file) when you get an OOME.

Check the documentation for DBCP (which Tomcat uses) here: http://commons.apache.org/dbcp/configuration.html > I enabled slow queries for mysql, but the developer claims the > queries are fine (although some report more than a second to be > run). Well, are you actually seeing slow queries in MySQL? It's not good enough to just enable logging... you have to read the log ;) > I can revert the GC strategy. the verbose options for GC are fine? Sure: that's just logging. You will have a miniscule performance degradation due to the logging, but I'm sure it's worth it to see what is happening. > I'll retake that path of checking mysql indexes and slow queries. Just use mysqldumpslow to be sure. Also, if you suspect a query, use EXPLAIN on it. Mysqldumpslow be default "anonymizes" queries so you can see a "class" of equivalent queries that are failing. MySQL determines its query plan based not just upon the structure of the query, but also upon the data and the indexes that are available at the time of the query. You might want to disable this anonymizing of the dat to get an /actual/ query that was slow. Then run EXPLAIN on that to see what the plan was: maybe MySQL is making a bad decision, or maybe you need an additional index. Or maybe the query is just written poorly in the first place. MySQL is notorious for using DEPENDENT SUBQUERIES (awful performance) when such a query is not necessary. > That we have outgrown our hardware, that's probably for sure.

Sheesh, if it's virtualized, just have them provision a larger instance for you and move the virtual machine. I'd recommend a 64-bit OS/JVM so you can get heaps bigger than about 1.5GiB. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG/MacGPG2 v2.0.17 (Darwin) Comment: GPGTools - http://gpgtools.org Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk+ix3gACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PA4mQCgnVETbX5COEfE7smzcYshFpQF of0An0xRGmakspqFsTIcobjonz5QP81U =F8mw -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
