we are in BOXI 3.1 SP7 version on Windows 2008 . Tomcat7 has been using more memory on the servers.
RAM is 4GB.
How can i identify the root cause of sudden raise in memory utilization.
I have cleared tomcat cache but still the spike didn’t go down.
Your ideas on this is greatly appreciated.

Memory issues in the application server are very difficult to nail down. In my experience, what generally causes a spike in the BO web application is a large WebI report being rendered as PDF or Excel. That is, a user is attempting to download a large report in this format.
