OutOfMemory on Sun Java 1.4.2 on Linux

Thread view: 
taab - 28 Apr 2005 19:21 GMT
Hi all,
My application (on JBoss) is experiencing strange problem on one of our
environment - on Linux on Itanium 2 - Sun Java 1.4.2_07 and 64 bit.
On all other platforms (windows, linux, 32 bit) is ok.
After 2-3 http requests the OutOfMemory exception is thrown.
Java is started with -Xmx1024M. In fact the bahaviour is exactly the
same as -Xmx512M.
'uname -a' shows unlimited resources for memory.
There is plenty of free memory in the system (main and swap) - for
example I can run 3 such java processes at the same time - but each is
reporting out of memory after few requests as it is for one java spawned.
'top' shows that java eats ~400M when the OutOfMemory is thrown.

Where to look, what to check?

Given that it's easy to reproduce, you merely have to find which application
is installed that is leaking memory.
Use a profiler if it's not obvious, but trial and error should yields
results in a few minutes or less.
