How to increase the amount of memory in the DataTurbine
Submitted by hubbard on Thu, 10/04/2007 - 17:18.
The DataTurbine's memory is determined by the Java virtual machine's (JVM) startup command-line parameters. These are separate from the RBNB parameters.
To increase memory, use the
-Xmx{value}M
parameter. For example:
java -Xmx1024M -jar $RBNB_HOME/bin/rbnb.jar
would give you 1G of memory.
Notes and limits
On a 32-bit operating system, you can't ask for more than about 3500M. On a 64-bit OS like Solaris with a 64-bit JVM, you just add
-d64
and then increase to what you can afford. We've tested with up to 12G of memory on a Sun T2000.
