Let us know the results. I may go to Sun and see if there is a thread about this.Edward Yang wrote:
I was about to point out that you were talking about *Linux*, in this case Fedora Core 3 distribution, and everyone (apparently) undestood that you were using *Windows* and that the problem showed in Windows... I don't know if you could try and run a dedicated session of FC, just to make sure the results are consistent with what you get in VPC... Personally I've run into >400Mb memory foot print of Java *only* with Azureus (a famous Java Torrent client), other applications, such as LimeWire while DO populate the RAM get about 3/4 of that... However *any* Java applet run through Firefox or Konqueror will *at the very least* load 80Mb into memory, this after a fresh boot with a base memory usage of about 98 Mb (measured with GkrellM)... I'll try to post in general Linux forums about this in other distributions specificially with Sun's JVM.Okay, I want to add more about Sun's JVM performance.
I have posted a message to Sun's forum about the memory footprint of the JVM on FC3. Please visit http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=590956 for the message.
