Hello, I have recently been getting problems with my 2gb of ram for my minecraft Bukkit server, All plugins are either Dev or fully updated and a list is; Coloured Signs, Group Manager, Lockette, Clear Lag, Factions, World Edit, World Guard, Permissions (GroupManager), Essentials (Chat, Protect, Antibuild, Spawn) My ram just seems to be absorbed over a time period for about 2-3 hours and then I need to restart the server as it gets to be up to 85% usage. (I have decreased the server view distance to 7) OS: Windows 7, Latest Java Still not solved Please help! Sorry for double post EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.
I think your problem is that you have Coloured Signs and Essentials Chat please remove one because they both do the same
How long have you been having this issue? Does the rate at which the RAM fills up change depending on how many people are moving around on your server? I have a similar problem. It's to do with Bukkit. As it loads chunks, it should unload others which aren't needed, but often some chunks are kept permanently loaded, thereby filling the RAM.
