OS tuning
Every OS has its own prerequisites to run Tomcat 7 and the system has to be tuned based on the application's requirement, but there are some similarities between each OS. Let's discuss the common module used for optimization of Tomcat 7 for every OS. The OS plays a vital role for increasing the performance. Depending on the hardware, the application's performance will increase or decrease. Some of the points which are very much useful for the application are:
Performance characteristics of the 64 bit versus 32 bit VM: The benefits of using 64 bit VMs are being able to address larger amounts of memory, which comes with a small performance loss in 64 bit VMs versus running the same application on a 32 bit VM. You can allocate more than 4 GB JVM for a memory-intensive application.
Note
In case you are using a 64 bit JVM edition, then you have to add 30 percent more memory as compared to a 32 bit JVM edition.
Files size: Based on the application requirement, the file size is set in...
