Tell me more ×  On my machine whenever I work with Eclipse (on
Suns JDK), the java process does not terminate after I exit
Eclipse. Therefore after working on several projects over the
day, I sometimes need to kill all those Java processes manually
to free my RAM again.  This bugs me for about 2 years now, while
all these parts have gone through different versions:    •
Ubuntu   • Eclipse (and all the installed plugins)   • Suns JDK
I've even tried to attach a VM debugger to the Java processes to
see what's going on, but had no success.  Although it would be
nice to find the reason for the problem, I'm meanwhile more
interested in a workaround to automatically kill those processes
once a day. I imagine a script to kill the Java processes, but
to make some exceptions depending on the command line parameters
of the Java process (e.g. I have Subsonic and the Playstation
Media Server running all the time).  What are your ideas to
automatically (and selectively) kill the Java processes?
