Hello, I'm trying to better understand the significance of adding "-server" to CATALINA_OPTS. I found this explanation in the Hotspot FAQ:
These two systems are different binaries. They are essentially two different compilers (JITs) interfacing to the same runtime system. The client system is optimal for applications which need fast startup times or small footprints, the server system is optimial for applications where the performance is most important. In general the client system is better on GUIs. Some of the other differences include the compilation policy used, heap defaults, and inlining policy. Now, it would seem obvious that an option called "-server" would be appropriate if you're running Tomcat, but it surprises me that I've seen no mention of this in the Tomcat docs. I just came across this today. My questions are, does anybody have any experience running Tomcat with and without the -server option? Would you definately recommend adding this to CATALINA_OPTS?
