Normal memory usage?

Hi...
Could anyone tell me what should be the normal memory usage of the server
just after startup?
I only have a few ejbs deployed and just after startup, my server memory
jumps to 150Mb.. so I'm wondering if this is normal because it looks to me
like a lot of memory...
I used to work with another application server with the same ejbs deployed
and even after several days up, the server process never took more han
75-80Mb of memory.. Weblogic is taking like twice this amount just after
startup... maybe my tuning is wrong.. is there anythng that I could do to
lower the memory usage?
by the way. I'm running WLS 7.0 on a win2k machine
thanks!

Hi Mathieu,
Generally there is no hard rule defined for all app servers for
how much memory it should use after startup. Why whould you
need to lower the memory usage? Do you have any specific
problem with the digits you've got?

  • Am running Firefox 7.0.1 now. Normal memory usage is 157mb but when running Facebook (not running apps nor games), it goes up to 553mb Why?

    Am running Firefox 7.0.1 now. Normal memory usage is 157mb but when running Facebook (not running apps nor games), it goes up to 553mb Why?

    I encountered the same type of problem. Firefox running terribly slowly and slowing down my entire machine (Core i5 with 256GB SSD). Searching the forums, I found a couple of things about troubleshooting performance issues, one of which was to use '''hardware acceleration''', that is on by default. It was turned on on my PC, '''so I tried deactivating it, and it worked!'''
    So doing the exact opposite as Mozilla support said solved the problem. It is really a pain now to work with Firefox. I'm using it because I have no choice, but I'd recommend IE and Chrome over Firefox... Whatever, the market will decide once Firefox has become to crappy...

  • Regarding normal memory usage...

    My iMac:
    2.8GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
    2GB 667MHz DDR2 SDRAM
    OS X 10.6.3
    I just rebooted my iMac, opened Activity Monitor and Safari...
    (1) My current virtual memory size is 133.73GB, is this normal?
    Current memory stats: Free = 800 MB, Wired = 170 MB, Active = 580 MB, Inactive = 510 MB
    Thanks.

    Sounds normal, if you are worried you don't have enough memory you can upgrade your machine to 4 GB. If you choose to do so I'd recommend OWC, very reputable and they even have a trade in on your old memory.

  • Z87-G45, 80%+ Memory Usage in Task Manager

    hey guys ran into another problem 
    i'm using windows 8.1 it's a fresh install and i'm running into high memory usage problem. I was running at 99% while idling earlier (system was lagging hard) so i system restored to the previous day and everything was fine until now. I see it slowly creeping up. While typing this i'm running at 84% Memory usage which seems absurdly high.
    I'm using 8gb of Gskill Ram so I tried to follow the sticky above, but my BIOS would not let me changed anything under the "Advanced DRAM settings" not sure what that is either?
    Anyone got a quick fix to this problem?

    Just updated my killer network drivers because i saw that sticky about people having problems with it.
    This dropped my RAM down to 18% while typing this at this very moment. I'll let you know if it creeps up again.
    My next question I guess is what is normal memory usage on windows 8.1?

  • IPS shows Memory usage 80 % is that normal ?

    Hi there.
    I have a 2 5525x configured as active/standy and bot IPS modules configured with defaults there is no internet connection to them and no traffic passing thru , but IPS show memory usage 80% is that normal ?

    Could be, every environment is different when it comes to IPS. It all depends on what signatures you have configured and tuned.

  • IDS 4235 showing 98% memory usage, is it normal?

    IDS 4235 with 4.1.5.S191 showing
    Using 908922880 out of 921522176 bytes of available memory (98% usage)
    Is it normal ?

    There is a 4.x known bug where the memory usage is incorrect.
    The actual memory usage number can be determined from the service account by entering the following command:
    bash-2.05a$ free
    total used free shared buffers cached
    Mem: 1934076 1424896 509180 0 18284 1214536
    -/+ buffers/cache: 192076 1742000
    Swap: 522072 0 522072
    The "Mem:" row, "used" column is the amount of memory (in kilobytes) that
    the "show version" command reports. However, this total includes the
    "cached" amount.
    So in the above example, the actual memory used is ( 1424896 - 1214536 ), or
    210360 KB. This is ( 210360 / 1934076 * 100 ), or 10.9% of total memory.

  • Problem with scanning and memory usage

    I'm running PS CS3 on Vista Home Premium, 1.86Ghz Intel core 2 processor, and 4GB RAM.
    I realise Vista only sees 3.3GB of this RAM, and I know Vista uses about 1GB all the time.
    Question:
    While running PS, and only PS, with no files open, I have 2GB of RAM, why will PS not let me scan a file that it says will take up 300Mb?
    200Mb is about the limit that it will let me scan, but even then, the actual end product ends up being less than 100Mb. (around 70mb in most cases)I'm using a Dell AIO A920, latest drivers etc, and PS is set to use all avaliable RAM.
    Not only will it not let me scan, once a file I've opened has used up "x" amount of RAM, even if I then close that file, "x" amount of RAM will STILL be unavaliable. This means if I scan something, I have to save it, close PS, then open it again before I can scan anything else.
    Surely this isn't normal. Or am I being stupid and missing something obvious?
    I've also monitored the memory usage during scanning using task manager and various other things, it hardly goes up at all, then shoots up to 70-80% once the 70ishMb file is loaded. Something is up because if that were true, I'd actually only have 1Gb of RAM, and running Vista would be nearly impossible.
    It's not a Vista thing either as I had this problem when I had XP. In fact it was worse then, I could hardly scan anything, had to be very low resolution.
    Thanks in advance for any help

    55%, it's still 1.6Gb....there shouldn't be a problem scanning something that it says will take up 300Mb, then actually only takes up 70Mb.
    And not wrong, it obviously isn't releasing the memory when other applications need it because it doesn't, I have to close PS before it will release it. Yes, it probably is supposed to release it, but it isn't.
    Thank you for your answer (even if it did appear to me to be a bit rude/shouty, perhaps something more polite than "Wrong!" next time) but I'm sitting at my computer, and I can see what is using how much memory and when, you can't.

  • High memory usage when many tabs are open (and closed)

    When I open Firefox the memory usage is about 70-100 MB RAM. When I'm working with Firefox I often open 15-20 tabs at once, then I close them and open others. Memory usage increaes up to 450 - 500 MB RAM. After closing the tabs the usage usually decreases, but after sometime. It starts decreasing very slow and never comes back to the level from the beginning. After few hours of work Firefox uses about 400 MB RAM even if one tab is open. First I thought it's because of my plugins (Firebug, Speed Dial, Adlock Plus) but I've checked it and it's not. I reinstalled Firefox but the problem occurs as well. I'm not sure if it's normal. Could you help me, please?

  • Tracking Memory usage on iOS using the Stats class

    I've been checking memory usage on an app I'm developing for iOS using the Stats class https://github.com/mrdoob/Hi-ReS-Stats ( http://help.adobe.com/en_US/as3/mobile/WS4bebcd66a74275c3-315cd077124319488fd-7fff.html#WS 948100b6829bd5a61637f0a412623fd0543-8000).
    I added the Stats class to my project and redeployed and, yikes, memory usage reported in Stats creeps up (pretty slowly) even when there's nothing happening in the app (just showing a loaded bitmap).
    To try and track down the issue I created a project with a test class that extends Sprite with just this single call in the constructor :-
    addChild( new Stats() );
    I deployed it to the device to check that it didn't gobble any memory.
    But I was Suprised to watch the memory usage creep up and up (to approx 5) before some garbage collection kicked in and takes memory back down. I left it running and then it crept up again to over 7.5 this time before being kicked back down to just below 3.
    So 2 related questions that I'd appreciate any feedback/observations/thoughts on :-
    1 - Is this normal (i.e. memory creeping up when there's nothing other than Stats in the project) ?
    2 - What is the best way to monitor memory usage within an app ? Is Stats good enough - is Stats itself causing the memory usage ?
    All the best guys !

    Also see thread (http://forums.adobe.com/message/4280020#4280020)
    My conclusions are :-
    - If you run an app and leave it idle, memory usage gradually creeps up (presumably as memory is being used to perform calcs/refresh the display etc)
    - Periodically the garbage collection kicks in and memory is brought back down
    - This cycle could be in excess of 5 mins
    Run with your real app and memory will increase and be released much more rapidly/regularly.
    - It's probably worth performing initial checks by running on your desktop to iron out any initial problems

    Hi, everyone
         I got a new t440p 20ANA00UHH (8GB RAM, win8 64bits) about one week ago. It works really well, but its memory usage  confused me. In Task Manager, the "Performance" option shows memory is 68% (5.4G in use), but "Users" option shows memory usage 66% (1019.5M in use). Is that normal ? I just opened some websites and word files.

  • Very High Memory Usage

    It never happened before and today it overloaded my PC so i had to force restart.
    I use 2 keyword research applications. They start to shoot up to  almost 600MB of RAM when i am researching keywords. When i minimize  program after research, the memory usage drops to 32MB. When i restore  window back, these 32MBs turn back into 600MB.
    I tried downgrading Adobe Air to version 2.0.4 and that didn't help. Upgrading to the newest version didn't help.
    What is the problem?

    Hi Boris,
    The memory usage is very dependent on the application and how it handles it's resources.  Have you contacted the developers of the two applications to see if your findings are consistent with their testing?  You mentioned that the memory footprint is the same between 2.0.2 and 2.5, do you know if it increased after 1.5.3?
    Having the memory usage drop to a fraction of it's normal size when minimized is consistent with normal Windows behavior.
    Thanks,
    Chris

  • Very high memory usage..possible memory leak?  Solaris 10 8/07 x64

    Hi,
    I noticed yesterday that my machine was becoming increasingly slow, where once it was pretty snappy. It's a Compaq SR5250NX with 1GB of RAM. Upon checking vmstat, I noticed that the "Free" column was ~191MB. Now, the only applications I had open were FireFox 2.0.11, GAIM, and StarOffice. I closed all of them, and the number reported in the "Free" column became approximately 195MB. "Pagefile" was about 5.5x that size. There were no other applications running and it's a single user machine, so I was the only one logged in. System uptime: 9 days.
    I logged out, logged back in, to see if that had an affect. It did not. Rebooted and obviously, that fixed it. Now with only FireFox, GAIM, and a terminal open, vmstat reports "Free" as ~450MB. I've noticed if I run vmstat every few seconds, the "Free" total keeps going down. Example:

    Is this normal and I just need to toss another gig in, or what?
    Thanks

  • Very high memory usage with Yahoo Mail

    After using Yahoo Mail for an hour or so my memory usage increases to a very high level.
    Just now, after reading and deleting about 50 e-mails (newsletters etc.) I noticed Firefox 17 running slowly and checked the memory usage in Windows Task Manager (I am using XP) and it was 1.2 Gb. My older laptop only has 2 Gb of RAM. Yahoo Mail was the only thing open at the time.
    I never notice this problem with Gmail which I mainly use. However I use Yahoo Mail for quite a few newsletters etc. that are less important and which I only check once a week or so.
    I found the following bug report about 3 years old which almost exactly describes my problem.
    https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=506771
    But this report involves a much earlier Firefox version, and at the end it seems to say that the problem was fixed. However it well describes my current issue with Firefox 17, especially the continual increase in memory while using the up/down arrow keys to scroll through Yahoo e-mails.
    Is this normal to have to shut down and reopen Firefox every hour or so to clean out the memory? For some reason I only notice this when using Yahoo Mail. After using many other sites and having multiple tabs open for several hours I rarely reach that kind of memory usage. About the highest I've seen with other sites after a couple of hours is 600 Kb which is roughly when I start notice slower response times.

    Ever since I changed the internal hard drive of my MacBook Pro (I installed a Seagate Barracuda 1Tb disk), I have the following problem:
    Whenever an application needs a lot of memory (for example Parallels installing a new Windows system, or Acrobat Pro optimizing a big PDF file), the computer progressively freezes. What I mean by freezing is that I can still move the mouse cursor, but clicking has no effect, and there is no interaction whatsoever with the GUI. Even the clock on the menu bar stops.
    I never had the problem before. I guess that under normal conditions the Finder will always keep a few Mb of RAM for its own use. After all I have 4Gb of RAM installed.
    Is there some way I can prevent the computer from freezing? Has this something to do with VM? Ever since I changed the hard disk, this problem happens once or twice every day, and the only solution is to force a restart, losing all my work…
    Thanks in advance for any advice…

    First, do not assign more than half your available RAM to a VM. It's best to let the VM software's configuration to select the amount used by its defaults.
    Second, watch how many concurrent applications you attempt to use. Monitor your memory usage in Activity Monitor. If the Available RAM (Inactive RAM plus Free RAM) is low and Free RAM is near zero, then you have too many concurrent applications running. This forces the system to start using the disk-based virtual memory file. With too many apps swapping into the vm file disk thrashing will occur that ultimately can lead to the computer appearing to freeze up or to actually freeze up.
    Of course your alternative is to install more RAM if in fact you are over-taxing what you have now. You may find the following helpful reading:

    Understanding top output in the Terminal
    The amount of available RAM for applications is the sum of Free RAM and Inactive RAM. This will change as applications are opened and closed or change from active to inactive status. The Swap figure represents an estimate of the total amount of swap space required for VM if used, but does not necessarily indicate the actual size of the existing swap file. If you are really in need of more RAM that would be indicated by how frequently the system uses VM. If you open the Terminal and run the top command at the prompt you will find information reported on Pageins () and Pageouts (). Pageouts () is the important figure. If the value in the parentheses is 0 (zero) then OS X is not making instantaneous use of VM which means you have adequate physical RAM for the system with the applications you have loaded. If the figure in parentheses is running positive and your hard drive is constantly being used (thrashing) then you need more physical RAM.

  • SA520W - High memory usage, possible fix in 2.2.0 firmware?

    As suggested by Thomas Watts, I'm starting a new thread to discuss the new SA520W firmware (2.2.0) and a possible resolution to high memory usage I'm experiencing on my network.
    My current setup is: 16Mbit DSL > SA520W > SA300-10, all with stock settings (no fancy VLAN's etc.)
    I have 4 CentOS 5/6 servers and a Windows 7 Ultimate station connected to the switch. I use CIFS to connect from Windows station to the other Linux servers and send large files. I currently notice the following behavior:
    When the file transfer starts, the Intel 1Gbit NIC is nearly saturated, hitting 115MB/sec. After few seconds, the data transfer comes to a halt and the transfer speed drops to around 50MB/sec. If I check the memory usage before the file transfer, it is approximately to 50-60% (on a fresh router reboot). Every time I send large files to other machines, the router memory consumption increases and it does not lower after a reasonable delay. I end-up with high memory near 90% and the only solution I have is to reboot the router in order to bring it back to 50%.
    Now, Thomas told me that this is simply a cosmetic issue, the memory is not actually 90% used. Yet, when the memory hits this threshold, I'm not capable to send files are normal LAN speeds I'm used to. Rebooting the router allows me to send only ONCE (and for few seconds) data at the expected LAN speeds.
    I would apreciate any input from Cisco engineers as well other users who experience the same issue. I would also like to know if any related work was done into 2.2.0 firmware and when we expect to have it released to users.

    Hi Tom,
    See below the answers.
    Are you currently running the 2.1.71 code?
    Yes
    Are you using IPS?
    No, the LAN is for internal use (no external users allowed)
    Are you using Protectlink services?
    No
    Hardware wise, I did not changed anything on machines. All boxes have dual Intel EXPI9301CT NIC's (LACP was planned) but I currently use single connections for sanity reasons (disks won't allow greater speeds anyway). Previous to Cisco, I used a Netgear ProSafe router + switch which did not encountered the issues I mention. Honestly, at first I thought I'm dealing with some stupid disk issues on Windows. So I ran a quick test and the stats are proper:

    As I mentioned before, everything is pretty much stock on router/switch settings. If you have any tips that allow me to identify the cause, I would appreciate the input. What puzzles me is the speed drop and quick memory usage increase. It occurs 7-10 seconds after the transfers begins. It looks like the data transfer hangs for a very short period of time (less than half of second) and the transfer speed decreases from 110-115MB/sec to 50-60MB/sec. The transfer is completed at this speed. No matter how many other files I try to transfer after, the speed won't go higher than 60MB/sec. If I reboot the router, I get the same cycle.
