Never seen it in SQL Backdoor or during CSV export/import. Then it's already too late to make a threaddump on the webserver.
We are facing this issue since we changed our Prod platform from HP-UX to Red Hat Linux. Don't you think it will help if we reduce memory back from 2400Mb to 2000Mb?

Kristof,

I wasn't referring to where the issue would appear but what the issue would have been caused by. Getting the error in the UI is only a symptom that the system is out of memory. What caused it is totally unrelated. The only true way to know what happened is with the thread dumps. You need to have at least 3 every 30 seconds but I would recommend having at least 6 to get a true representation of where the issue is.
