I assume that you're referring to the JVM arguments Xms and Xmx. There isn't a tomcat-specific setting to control JVM memory allocations; you'll need to read more about that in the java documentation of the appropriate JVM, but it isn't much more to the arguments than what you already stated. As far as 'appropriate values' goes, those are subjective because everyone's application's have different memory needs. You will have to do some load testing to determine how much memory your application will need to function properly. If your application is behavior abnormally and there are OutOfMemoryExceptions occurring you can also analyze a heap dump from the event to determine if you have an application problem causing memory issues, or if you just need more memory. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
