Not on those, but Windows normally provides only 2GB of virtual space for each process. (There's an initialization switch that can change this to 3GB, but that introduces some other issues.) Unfortunately, this space is fragmented, and the JVM heap is allocated in one contiguous chunk (at least it was in 1.4.1). I'm a bit surprised you ran out at 1GB. > Should I configure by editing startup.bat/catalina.bat instead? Definitely makes it easier to fiddle with the values until you find the maxima. You don't need to start Tomcat to play with -Xmx and the other heap settings - a simple HelloWorld will suffice. Always set -Xms and -Xmx to the same value when you're trying to find the limit. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
