Claus Ibsen commented on AMQ-3573:
----------------------------------
Isn't there an API in JDK6+ now that you can ask for disk space?
> Hardcoded defaults for systemUsage not suitable for out of the box
> -------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: AMQ-3573
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMQ-3573
> Project: ActiveMQ
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Broker
> Affects Versions: 5.5.1
> Reporter: Torsten Mielke
> Labels: default, systemUsage
> Attachments: AMQ-3573.patch
>
>
> Right now the default activemq.xml has the entire <systemUsage> section
> commented out. If commented, then the default systemUsage as defined in
> BrokerService.getSystemUsage() applies and uses these limits:
> memoryLimit 64 MB
> storeLimit: 10 GB
> tempLimit: 100 GB
> I don't think these are good default values as in the worst case the broker
> may use 110 GB of disk space. Many runtime environments will not have that
> much disk space and are therefore in danger of running out of disk space
> completely.
> IMHO some more sensitive defaults would be
> memoryLimit 64 MB
> storeLimit: 1 GB
> tempLimit: 1 GB
> to prevent the broker from using too much disk space by default.
> I believe most users of ActiveMQ are unaware of these defaults and probably
> don't expect the broker to use up to 110 GB of their disk.
> If anyone really needs large store and temp limit, they should explicitly
> configure for it.
