Solaris 8 with HIGH %ufs_ipf

Hi All,

I am running into this problem with a solaris 8 server running apache and
weblogic. I have tried 'top', 'sar', vmstat, iostat to check swap space,
memory usage and other system resources.

I am not quite sure that I understand the meaning of "%ufs_ipf" but I am
not comfortable with the high value -shown below-.sar -g

SunOS isweb1 5.8 Generic_108528-10 sun4u 07/10/02

00:00:00 pgout/s ppgout/s pgfree/s pgscan/s %ufs_ipf
01:00:00 0.00 0.01 0.01 0.00 0.00
02:00:00 6.38 23.16 22.97 0.00 74.05
03:00:00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00

I have also noticed that the JRE process size grows very large. Does this
with the high ufs_ipf imply memory leak? if yes how can I be sure.

Are there any specs on how to configure the kernel /etc/system parameters
for a server running web application-weblogic?
The following is the output of top:
last pid: 29920; load averages: 0.00, 0.01, 0.02
                                            22:11:1834 processes: 33
sleeping, 1 on cpu
CPU states: 99.6% idle, 0.1% user, 0.3% kernel, 0.0% iowait, 0.0% swap
Memory: 2048M real, 1224M free, 549M swap in use, 2100M swap free

The CPU idle drops to around 50% when a user connects to the server!!

Any thoughts? Please :-)

Kind Regards,

Z. Fadli

Below is the output of vmstat then sar:
