Hi Chuck,

I did see reference to that OOM killer, but the VM we are running on is 64
bit Windows.

I was referring to the heap memory usage.

any suggestions on where else to look?

cheers,

Sounds like the Linux OOM killer (if the guest OS that Tomcat's on is
Linux, of course).

What memory are you referring to?  Java heap?  Linux RAM + swap?  VM
allocation?
