Heap Space

JVM parameters that can be configured for the AppNode heap are minimum heap space (Xms) and maximum heap space (Xmx).

The default values for these parameters are -Xmx1024m -Xms128m.

Note: It is recommended to set minimum heap size to a default value and tune the maximum heap based on monitoring of memory usage and garbage collection frequency under load. It is also recommended to run baseline, scalability, and stability tests for identifying the optimum value of maximum heap size.
