Hi,
I'm running a Java 1.4.2 application on a Red Hat machine that causes the JVM to crash with a SIGSEGV error. -Xms is 64M and -Xmx is 128M. I first thought that the perm gen size was too low since it always has a high percentage (98/99%) when the JVM crashes. After reading more about the perm gen, though, I'm not so sure. Am I looking down the right path by thinking it may be the perm gen size being too low or is the percentage so high just because the JVM will resize it dynamically? When it crashes the perm gen's total size is around 10/11 MB and its usually 99% full.
Below are some snippets of the JVM's output.

If it's not the perm gen, does anyone have any other suggestions?
