Howdy, Don't think about GC settings as "correct" or not, as that's too absolute. There's a huge gray area in between that you should experiment with. The settings below aren't likely to be optimal as they leave a big chunk (50%) of the heap fixed and for the young generation, yet you're not collecting the young generation any more actively than usual.
