Hi Vladimir, actually is it the file jenkins.xml/respectively hudson.xml not config.xml...
--- SNIP --- <executable>java</executable> <arguments>-Dhudson.DNSMultiCast.disabled=true -Xrs -Xmx256m - Dhudson.lifecycle=hudson.lifecycle.WindowsServiceLifecycle -jar "%BASE% \jenkins.war" --httpPort=8080</arguments> --- SNAP --- Question is here, does it make sense to put the heap size with -Xms to 512 megs. Puttimg the value too high will eventually result in the exact opposite behaviour as wanted. I have one server running with assigned memory of 21 gigabyte but the heap size is 256meg and running fine. Bringing the heap size higher did result in performance loss and/ or even java to fail at runtime.
