Heap Memory
[171 byte] By [Monzaa] at [2007-11-26 22:25:06] 
Hi all,Increasing the heapmem of Java. I know you have to use the -xms or the -xmx. do i need both or just 1 and what could be the right syntax?cheers

It depends upon your requirement. By making use of both you can define start and end size of the heap.
For example, the java option -Xmx768m gives it a 768MByte heap, maximum but starts with just a 2MB heap. You can add -Xms256m (for example) to make the heap sart at 256MB - this can be more CPU efficient if your going to need that larger space anyway
Usage example: java -Xms64m -Xmx512m
