Hi All,

Please find below the description of memory leaks issues.

1. Statistics show major growth in the perm area (static classes).
Flows were ran for 8 hours , Heap dump was taken after 2 hours and at
the end. A growth in Perm area was identified

2. Statistics show from our last run 240MB growth in 6 hour,40mb
growth every hour 2GB heap –can hold ¾ days ,heap will be full in ¾
days
Heap dump show –growth in area as mentioned below

we are using
Oracle BEA Weblogic 9.2 MP3
JDK 1.5.12
Oracle versoin 10.2.0.4 (for oracle we found one path which is needed

But we are stuck to resolve SUN, BEA Weblgogic and Apache leaks.

please suggest...

So what's loading classes and not collecting them?

What makes you think those well-established products are responsible for the
leaks and not the application code?

Does that obsolete version of Java support perm-gen sweeping for GC?

hi Lew,

:) yes you are right. How can we identify fault in our Application
code. Histogram is showing classes of Apache, BEA and Oracle.

Does that obsolete version of Java support perm-gen sweeping for GC?
could you please us more view on this point...

Thanks Lew...

By convention we cite the author of a quoted Usenet post and set the quoted
material off with various depths of consecutive right-angle-bracket ('>')
characters.

Histogram from where?

Servers like WebSphere Application Server have options to help track memory
leaks, like Tivoli ITCAM.

We penurious students of the art need less expensive alternatives. The
"-verbose:gc" option to the JVM might help, as might the Java Console.

There are several standard tools for troubleshooting memory usage, starting
with "-verbose:gc", jhat and jmap through JConsole and on to Java VisualVM
<http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/technotes/guides/visualvm/index.html>
which last, alas for you, only came out full time with Java 6. You might be
able to use it under Java 6 to debug your Java 5 program, though.

Most of the available tools require deciphering and interpreting log files. See
<http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/technotes/tools/index.html#troubleshoot>
and following paragraphs.

There is an option to the Sun JVM, "-XX:+CMSClassUnloadingEnabled", that
allows GC to unload unused classes after a while, and another,
"-XX:+CMSPermGenSweepingEnabled", that allows GC to clean up the permanent
generation.

To assist your analysis, "-XX:PermSize=??m XX:MaxPermSize=???m" let you
control the size of the permanent generation. I run NetBeans with a
"MaxPermSize=200m", and with all it controls, including Tomcat, that seems to
work so far.

I don't know if these options are available with Java 5 either, but you can
run your Java 5 apps on a Java 6 JVM and use these tools to help you diagnose
things.

Thanks Lew for your valuable inputs.
