JVM Tuning Guidelines

Each TIBCO BusinessWorks™ Container Edition engine runs as a multi-threaded Java server application. Processes and other objects used internally by TIBCO BusinessWorks Container Edition are Java objects that consume memory while the engine is running.

Java provides some useful parameters for tuning memory usage. Ensure that you consider these factors when selecting a JVM.

Besides the JVM version and the vendor, the most relevant tuning parameters are:
  • JVM heap size
  • Garbage collection settings
