Hi Folks,

We've run into an issue where our server begins to run very slowly over time...Due to stuck threads most likely. Are there any recommended settings for session timeout etc to lessen the incidence of this? I am going to implement a weekly restart of the Tomcat service after hours, but I thought I'd at least ask whether there are other recommended settings for Tomcat in production.

Thanks,

Doug

Is there any indication in catalina.out as to why threads are getting stuck? The default for session timeout is 30 minutes. Note if you set the session timeout too low, you could run into another issue. If you have an application with a main and it calls a module, the module must return to the main before the session timeout expires.
