Memory leak with axis

[sy...@atosorigin.com]

Hi,

I use axis 1.2RC3 with tomcat 4.1.29, java version 1.4.2_02 on Solaris 2.8,
and I'm facing a memory consumption problem.
No change when upgrading to axis1.2.1.

I use a document style web service and wrote a very simple
xxxxSOAPBindingImpl.java (after generation with wsdl2java) , that just
builds a very simple predefined response when receiving a request and sends
it back. The source is included at the end of that doc.
I run a client that stresses my Web service. When activating garbage
collector traces on the server side, I can see that Tenured zone increases
regularly and garbage collecting times turn higher and higher.

On a production system, with a similar document style web service, but a
richer implementation (that is the response is build after a non-trivial
processing), I face the same problem ... but memory grows faster and the
application blocks when all the memry is exhausted. So it has to be
restarted once a day. We soon will face increasing volumes, and this will
become a serious problem.

Are there some known issues or similar cases ? I couldn't find anything
about such a problem.

Regards
