"jboss cpu spike - GC?"

--------------------------------------------------------------
Hi,

I have a jboss 5.1 app with sun jdk 1.7.something. At night, it runs a large job and \
gobbles memory. The process gets to 2.5GB and never goes down, but I hear that's \
normal with heap space? But after a few days of this, I begin to see the cpu spike to \
100% of one cpu for a few seconds, then go down. This happens every 5 seconds or so, \
probably GC?

Using mostly a default run.bat, I have the jvm args set to:

-Xrs -Xms256M -Xmx2048M -XX:MaxPermSize=256m -XX:+CMSClassUnloadingEnabled \
                -XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC 
 -Dsun.rmi.dgc.client.gcInterval=3600000 -Dsun.rmi.dgc.server.gcInterval=3600000
 -Dorg.jboss.resolver.warning=true

Should we be doing something more specific? And if the GC keeps running that often \
even after the thread to do the nightly job has ended, do I have a memory leak \
somewhere? We do sometimes run out of memory, but maybe it needs Xmx of 4gb just to \
finish the job. 

I'm going to up the memory anyway, but what clues do we look for to determine if \
there is a leak and/or better GC settings?

Thank you very much!
Jim
