Hi, Chris! Thanks for your response! I can't say that the reporting function is a primary function of the server, however the web application includes a lot of statistical reports about views/visitors/sales, etc for long time periods (up to 1 year).
As I told, the server has 2GBs of RAM. 1.6GB is constantly used, meaning that Tomcat uses only 800MB while the rest 800MB are used by the OS and other software running on the background. The memory is not used all because Tomcat is not allowed to use more than 800MBs. I guess it would easily eat up the remaining 400MB of free RAM. So, I would like to know if increasing the Tomcat heap would help me to increase a server speed - application page loading speed? I guess the most slowest parts of the webapp (mostly statistical reporting section) relies heavily on MySQL database, since it has to extract quite much data and call a lot of requests to database in order to show the report. The Tomcat Java application and MySQL database runs on one machine, so I guess it's a one-box wonder. I performed tests on members area and found that in most cases all pages are loaded within 4-10 seconds. The slowest pages (e.g. reports to view longer period time data) sometimes takes 20-180 seconds to load. How can I increase this speed?
