I'm not a Oracle Java person but on most of the JVMs I've seen there are initialization parameters that you can set to enable verbose garbage collection logging and output.  

1 such param is -verbose:gc and -Xloggc:verbosegc.log . The Xloggc parameter is simplay a filename where the GC information is written to.  

There are some docs on Sun's Java site for interpreting garbage collection information or search Google.          

Thanks!

Subject: Monitoring memory usage by Java process

does anyone know a way to identify how momory is used by a java process? On one of our servers, a process keeps hogging memory to a stage where we kill it. Whereas on a similar instance, it is well behaved.

Since it is java I am not on java cluetrain. The databases are 9204. Raj
