i have a server at the moment which makes a new thread for every user connected but after about 6 people are on the server for more than 15 mins it tends to flop and give me java heap out of memory error i have 1 thread that checks with a mysql database every 30 seconds to see if any of the users currently logged on have any new messages. what would be the easiest way to implement a server queue?
this is the my main method for my server:
public class Server {
public static int MaxUsers = 1000;
//public static PrintStream[] sessions = new PrintStream[MaxUsers];
public static ObjectOutputStream[] sessions = new ObjectOutputStream[MaxUsers];
public static ObjectInputStream[] ois = new ObjectInputStream[MaxUsers];
private static int port = 6283;
public static Connection conn;
static Toolkit toolkit;
static Timer timer;
public static void main(String[] args) {
try {
conn = (Connection) Mysql.getConnection();
} catch (Exception ex) {
Logger.getLogger(Server.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
}

mailChecker();
try {
int i;
ServerSocket s = new ServerSocket(port);
for (i = 0; i < MaxUsers; ++i) {
sessions[i] = null;
}
while (true) {
try {
Socket incoming = s.accept();
boolean found = false;
int numusers = 0;
int usernum = -1;
synchronized (sessions) {
for (i = 0; i < MaxUsers; ++i) {
if (sessions[i] == null) {
if (!found) {
sessions[i] = new ObjectOutputStream(incoming.getOutputStream());
ois[i]= new ObjectInputStream(incoming.getInputStream());
new SocketHandler(incoming, i).start();

}
} else {

}
