Hi All,

Our JIRA instance is taking too much CPU and it comes normal everytime we do instance bounce. Again same is repeating after couple of days.

Thread dump error,

"HTTP1094" daemon prio=10 tid=0x1e297c00 nid=0x16fd in Object.wait() [0x19cfd000]

Your problem seems to be connected to your connection pool size:

Check this KB article and see if it solves your problem:

I would give it a try. Have you had a look at the DB usage? I mean your stack trace looks basically the same...

Thanks for the suggestion.

But our JIRA works normally and only CPU usage is high.

Christian is right. Tuning Java applications is really not as simple as "CPU usage is high, so it must be something that is CPU related". You need to dig through what is causing thread blocks, which might be causing the CPU to thrash, and the cause of the blocks can be the database pooling connections.

This is never a simple thing to debug, but you aren't going to get anywhere if you just assume it's a single component of the system.

Have a look at <cite>www.youtube.com/watch?v=mkh_UbNWF84</cite>‎ for a rather good talk on how to look after Atlassian applications.

It's a good one. I missed the one in the video too, but I'd already sat through it 6 times, and needed a change :-) Just glad he hasn't "delegated" the next one to me. Yet...
