We are using Jbosscache in production. The environment is:

-two weblogic 7 instances on two different machines (SUN and HP)

-Jdk 1.3.1

-JBosscache 1.2.3

-Jgroups 2.2.8-jdk-1.3

We don't use transactions and eviction policy. Object lifecycle is managed by our application. Synchronous replication. We use only Treecache objects. No use of AOP. The JBosscache configuration file is:

We are facing the following problems:

1) from time to time the Weblogic "freezes" (speaking BEA language: no answer - no remote exception, nothing at all - from a t3 call). 
We hope that this problem will disappear when we'll migrate to JBosscache 1.4.0/weblogic 9.1/jdk 1.5

2) OutOfMemory exception. Everything works fine for a few days, then we see many FULL garbage collection, then memory explodes. 
Our application has a sort of "periodic load": many user connect at morning, a few disconnect during lunch time, then they reconnect in the afternoon , then they disconnect on evening. During night we clean eveything (and from what we see, we are almost sure  to clean). 

We made a lot of stress test, but we've never seen this kind of problems during them. 

We are trying to investigate the OOM problem, but I would like to know if our JBosscache configuration file could be responsible for memory troubles (i read something about FC fast - messaging related to memory trouble...).

TIA
