Hi All
I have an ASE 15.7 dataserver running BW on Linux that (according to the network admin) is displaying very high memory usage.
This is causing memory swap to kick in. I can see dataserver is using on avg. 86.8% of memory and all the BWP_01_DIA_* is using a bit of memory as well. eg. BWP_01_DIA_W5, BWP_01_BTC_W32,
occasionally it spikes to over 100%, thus swap kicking in.
Is this normal behaviour? How does one check what is consuming the memory?
What %MEM as displayed in "top" on Linux is considered normal?
The environment details are:
