Heap max available vs committed vs used

evebill8Mar 9 2010 — edited Mar 9 2010
Hi folks,

I allocate 8 GB to the heap. The heap committed size seems hanging around 2 GB to 4GB only, and the heap used size is about the same as committed. Would anyone tell me why the committed size won't take up to 8 GB? Is it because I never need that much?

Thanks!
