Jose, I'll pass on a few things that I've learned while deploying MapXtreme Java solutions:
1) Use the latest version of MapXtreme you can get your hands on. With every revision, there seems to be a performance gain and the developers at MapInfo really do try to squeeze every last ounce of performance out of the JVM. 2) Use the HotSpot Client VM. Apparently, because of the graphic-centric focus of MapXtreme, the Client VM is apparently just a little better at rendering performance than the Server VM. 3) Use the latest JRE. Same as MapInfo, Sun really does find ways to make things run faster. Just going from 1.3.1 to 1.4.2, I've noticed an increase in performance. 4) If you don't have to force the -Djava.awt.Headless mode - don't. You may not have an option on the Solaris box that you're using but that will probably make a big difference. 5) Try starting the VM with a larger heap size. 6) Create your MDF files as NamedMaps and call them using names. This should give you a place to start. I've had more headaches trying to wrap MapXtreme into different application servers. I learned that if you don't have to deploy MapXtreme into a servlet container other than Tomcat, don't. These suggestions are a combination of recommendations that MapInfo makes, and some of my own personal experience - take them with a grain of salt. The best way - test, test, test. - Ian Erickson ----- Original Message ----- From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, November 28, 2003 10:43 AM Subject: MI-L MapXtreme Java performance tunning in Solaris Hello all, I guess this question has been asked a hundred times... so I hope someone of you guys can help me. I have developed an application using MapXtreme Java and is running under a Solaris box with WebSphere as application server... it is already up and running... however, our customer is screaming for a faster response... we have done several adjustements at database level and even at code level... now I was wondering if there is something we can do on the server configuration... I was thinking on two main things to look at: Websphere configuration and the X11 service configuration... Is my approach correct? Or do I have to look somewhere else? Which do you guys think are the main parameters I should look at? Thank you in advance for any help you could give me. Saludos!
