What is 'jsvc' and how do I get rid of it?

[Jay Vee <jv...@gmail.com>]

I have a BSD VM that I pay for.  I pay for memory usage and keep getting
overage notices and have to pay a buck or two every week.

I was told that the 'jsvc' process is taking up 60% of my daily cpu.


   1. What is 'jsvc'?
   2. How did I get it ( I do not remember buying it or installing it )?
   3. How do I turn it off?
   4. How do I get rid of it forever?
   5. How do I make sure I never get it again?

I seriously do not think I need it.  If I needed it, I would have installed
it.

These dollars add up and are now cutting into my burrito budget.  seriously.

It's most certainly tomcat that is simply launched using jsvc.
You can change all that by modifying the startup script that launches 
your tomcat.
But I would not be so sure if your cpu issue would go away with 
ditching jsvc.
Then your service provider would just report that the process that uses 
a lot of cpu is java.

You just have to debug in your own system the ultimate reason that 
causes tomcat to use a lot of cpu.

Our local Tomcat and [daemon] experts will probably be of more use.  You
can certainly run Tomcat without jsvc, but I don't know anything about your
setup, or what you'd be sacrificing by not using jsvc.

I am running Apache and Tomcat.  I have a few simple html pages .html and
no web apps at the moment.  If this is needed, is there an alternative?  If
it is needed does it have to take up 60% of the cpu doing nothing all the
time?  I have no web apps installed at the moment.

thanks for the help.

Are you running Java-based processes, e.g. Apache Tomcat or any derivative
thereof, on this VM?
