Java memory leak

Hi,

Had a look at older forums for Java memory leak, and found some cool commands .. but it has not solved my probs.

I am running UX11.00 with QPK June 2002 loaded, and Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.3.1.07-021014-12:03)
Java HotSpot(TM) Server VM (build 1.3.1 1.3.1.07-JPSE_1.3.1.07_20021014 PA2.0, mixed mode) .... what other patches wil address memory leak problems here??

Thanks

Hello,

I also work in an environment where I am often confronted with situations that point to a so-called 'memory leak'. But, as experience has shown, it often has as much to do with the programming and occasionally with the kernal configuration. I am not aware that a memory leak can be cured by a patch.

Anyway, a question. Have you looked already at you kernel config:
bufpages
nbuf
dbc_min_pct
dbc_max_pct
fs_async
maxfiles
maxfiles_lim
nfile
nflocks
ninode

Particulary the first 4 parameters are important. Tey determine how much memory gets dynamically allocated. Java is memory intensive and, what makes matters worse has its own memory management. So, take a careful look at these parameters and adjust them accordingly.
