[opencms-dev] JVM Tuning reccomendations for OpenCMS

[Paul Adams]

Hi Brendon,
 
Interesting -- Our configuration is very similar:
 
RedHat 8.0
Apache 2 with jk2 connector
Tomcat 4.1.18
Sun JDK 1.4.1

We originally ran with no JAVA_OPTS, taking the default JVM settings. The performance was terrible. I added the memory options I documented in my last post and the performance was better, but we get the gradual degradation noted.
 
I also think our server is dual processor and I believe we're using the dp kernel. Could this be an issue?
 
I have been reading this document from Sun
 
http://java.sun.com/docs/hotspot/gc1.4.2/
 
and was wondering if upping the ammount of memory reserved for "young" objects might improve things (Just a hunch based on editing must be creating and destroying loads of objects). Unfortunately our Linux operator is away and I cannot make changes until Friday. You could try upping the "NewSize" options and see if this helps, but it may only be a bandaid solution.
 
Any other suggestions gladly accepted :-)
 
Regards
Paul.

	Hi Paul,
	
	We have noticed a similar problem, running OpenCMS 5.0.0
	
	RedHat 8.0
	Apache 2 with mod_jk connector
	Tomcat 4.1
	IBM JDK 1.4.0
	
	Are you using the SUN JDK, IBM or another?
	
	At this point in time we are unsure of where the real issue lies, so I can't
	provide
	any tuning tips at this point in time.
	
	Regards
	Brendon

	Hi,
	
	We have been noticing a gradual performance degradation in the OpenCMS 5.0
	RC2 workplace running under Tomcat on Redhat Linux 8. With two users editing
	documents over a period of 2-3 hours, the workplace slows down to the point
	where a complete refresh will take up to 60 seconds.
	
	The Server has 512Mb of RAM and 1Gb of swap space.
	
	Our current JVM runtime parameters are:
	
	-Server -Xincgc -Xms256m -Xmx256m -XX:NewSize=128m -XX:MaxNewSize=128m
	
	Has anyone got any tuning tips for use with OpenCMS?
	
	Regards
	Paul Adams.
