And throughput is the default as long as your machine is detected as server class. But throughput is not great with large tenured spaces out of the box. It only parallelizes the new space collection. You have to turn on an option to get parallel tenured collection as well - which is essential to scale to large heap sizes. -- - Mark http://www.lucidimagination.com
