VIRTUAL memory shouldn't really be a problem. Resident memory is of more interest. Rob.
Are you sure? On one of these machines there is a total swap size of 2048m, on the other there is 1436m. If my process is using up 1/3rd of swap, then doesn't that mean I can only run three of these servers before exhausting swap?
This issue was brought to my attention by the administrator of a commercial machine I'm running one of the Hunchentoot servers on - he was objecting to the amount of virtual memory it was using. He said the paging was impacting overall server performance.
