Set memory for Tomcat/JBOSS

[wallyg]

I’m running DSpace on Mac OS X Server (10.4) and wonder where I might be able to adjust the amount of memory java uses. I know about JAVA_OPTS= but can’t find the place to make that modification in Tiger (or Panther for that matter). I have no idea what the default is but want to bump it up to something like 512MB. If I were running java from the command line, I’d enter:
java -Xmx512m -Xms64M
but where can I put values like that for JBOSS/Tomcat? Or is it necessary? Any advice would be appreciated.

found the answer…just coming back here to close the loop in case it comes up again for another user.

To increase memory for JBOSS, modify run.conf
(/Library/JBOSS/3.2/bin/run.conf) and change the Xmx100 to whatever (e.g., Xmx256M)

#
# The Java VM to use. 1.4.2 or higher
#
JAVA=/usr/bin/java

#
# Specify options to pass to the Java VM.
#
# Don’t change the JBoss temp.dir setting
JAVA_OPTS="-server -Xmx100M $JAVA_OPTS -Djboss.server.temp.dir=$JBOSSTMPDIR"
