Maximum Heap Size

843811Jan 14 2005 — edited Jan 14 2005
Hi,

I am looking for information on maximum heap size for JVM, if -Xms is set to some value (greater than 2 MB, say 32 MB ) and -Xmx is not specified.

Is the maximum heap size is governed by RAM (say 512 MB) on the machine and set to half the RAM size (256 MB in this specific case) or is it set to -Xms+64MB (96 MB in this specific case) ?

Thank you for your time.
VM
