This section describes how to change the memory settings for the Java Virtual Machine when running Aspire. It depends on how you are running Aspire.
By default Aspire uses 1 GB of memory for evaluation purposes, but for production or development environments we recommend to increase this accordingly. Check the Hardware and Network Considerations for the recommend memory allocation settings.
Go to your ${aspire.home}/bin folder and edit the startup.sh file, in this case we are setting Aspire to use 32 GB of memory
# Set the java options JAVA_OPT="$JAVA_OPT -Xmx32g -Xms32g -XX:MaxPermSize=256m"
Restart Aspire:
$ bin\shutdown.sh
and then
$ bin\startup.sh
Go to your ${aspire.home}\bin folder and edit the startup.bat file, in this case we are setting Aspire to use 32 GB of memory
rem set the Java options for Aspire set ASPIRE_JAVA_OPTS=-Xmx32g -Xms32g -XX:MaxPermSize=256m
Restart Aspire:
> bin\shutdown.bat
and then
> bin\startup.bat
If running Aspire as Windows Service, there is two options:
Every command should be run using an Administrator Console, and relative to the ${aspire.home} directory.
Change the ${aspire.home}\bin\installService.bat file to reflect the memory settings you want to use. In the example below we are setting the memory as 32 GB
rem Initial Java heap size set JAVA_INITIAL_MEMORY=32768 rem Maximum Java heap size set JAVA_MAX_MEMORY=32768
Remove the service by executing
> bin\removeService.bat Windows Service Name: AspireService [SC] DeleteService SUCCESS Service AspireService deleted. >
Reinstall the service
> bin\installService.bat "JAVA 8" Current System Architecture: AMD64 Windows Service Name: AspireService Aspire Home: C:\Users\aaguilar\Distributions\aspire-3.2 Java VM: C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_73\jre\bin\server\jvm.dll Creating Service... Service AspireService created. >
Enjoy your new memory settings
This option is available if you can't or don't want to reinstall the Service.
