Hi,

I've now been running Jboss without rebooting for 15 days and decided to reboot as I've lost over 1.5 GB of memory.

Memory has gone from 572196 to 1956684 on reboot.

I'm using the standard run.conf.

# Specify options to pass to the Java VM.
#
if [ "x$JAVA_OPTS" = "x" ]; then
JAVA_OPTS="-server -Xms128m -Xmx128m"
fi

java version "1.4.2_10"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.2_10-b03)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.2_10-b03, mixed mode)

Jboss version: jboss-4.0.1sp1

Do you have any advise on how to set the options to the VM to prevent losing so much memory??


After taking down Jboss after 15 days before a reboot I had:

# vmstat 1 10
