A recent change (r1820380) reminds me of an issue I have with the start
scripts. I don't think it is a good idea to hardcode user-changeable
values in the start scripts. The user will have to edit the script each
time we ship a new version.
In tomcat we source in a env.sh (env.bat) from a known position in the
filesystem where the user can set her own values. Those will override
the default values from the start script.
Values I would like to see set in such a env.bat would include
* JAVA_HOME/JRE_HOME
* JMETER_OPTS
* HEAP
* JMETER_LANGUAGE
* GC_ALGO
* SYSTEM_PROPS
* JVM_ARGS
What do you think?
