[Geoserver-users] Geoserver performing Slow

Hello Girish,

These is the Tomcat config that works nicely on a slightly smaller
(Win2008/8GB RAM/6 cores VM) server:

-Dcatalina.home=C:\Tomcat 6.0.35
-Dcatalina.log=C:\logs
-Dcatalina.base=C:\Tomcat 6.0.35
-Djava.endorsed.dirs=C:\Tomcat 6.0.35\endorsed
-Djava.io.tmpdir=C:\Tomcat 6.0.35\temp
-Djava.util.logging.manager=org.apache.juli.ClassLoaderLogManager
-Djava.util.logging.config.file=C:\Tomcat 6.0.35\conf\logging.properties
-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.port=xxxxxxx <--a number here
-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.ssl=false
-Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.authenticate=false <--only if your server is
behind a firewall
-XX:PermSize=192m
-XX:MaxPermSize=512m
-XX:NewSize=900m
-XX:MaxNewSize=2700m
-XX:SurvivorRatio=6

-Xmx=4048 <-- but that is entered in a menu (Tomcat is running as a
service)

our major garbage collections are 300- 500msec, minor between 50 and 200
msec with this config.
Despite so-called parallel garbage collection and assurances to the
contrary, Java isn't doing a lot during garbage collection, so you need to
strike a balance between quantity and duration of minor and full garbage
collections. The configuration above is rather on the side of fewer and
longer garbage collections.
Try with that configuration above and try to improve and adapt it better to
your server.
Check you real usage with jvisualvm.exe (in the java bin directory- see
jmxremote params) as big unused memory spaces do not make your server
faster.
