On curriki.org, our solr's Tomcat saturates memory after 2-4 weeks. I am still investigating if I am accumulating something or something else is.
To check it, I am running a "query all, return num results" every minute to measure the time it takes. It's generally when it meets a big GC that gives a timeout that I start to worry. Memory then starts to be hogged but things get back to normal as soon as the GC is out. I had other tomcat servers with very long uptimes (more than 6 months) so I do not think tomcat is guilty. Currently I can only show the freememory of the system and what's in solr-stats, but I do not know what to look at really... paul Le 27 juil. 2011 à 03:42, Bing Yu a écrit : > I find that, if I do not restart the master's tomcat for some days, > the load average will keep rising to a high level, solr become slow > and unstable, so I add a crontab to restart the tomcat everyday. > > do you boys restart your tomcat ? and is there any way to avoid restart > tomcat?
