Hi,
We've recently had a couple of incidents of the Shib IdP stopping and requiring a tomcat stop & start. There was an error in the logs of:
12:15:43,388 [TP-Processor4] ERROR Caught exception (java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space) executing org.apache.jk.common.ChannelSocket$SocketAcceptor@e520e0, terminating thread - org.apache.tomcat.util.threads.ThreadPool [20080922]
A google for this +shibboleth revealed a thread discussing java heap and shib 1.3:
https://mail.internet2.edu/wws/arc/shibboleth-users/2006-01/msg00028.html
and so I've followed these instructions and put:
JAVA_OPTS="-server -Xms512M -Xmx2000M"
in my catalina.sh
But, a question, what are other folks setting for their java heap size? In lieu of any other instructions I had just left it at the default, is there any Shib documentation I've missed which discusses this and other tuning that I ought to have done?
Cheers
Andy
