The JVM will grow to as much memory as you configure for its max, you can set this with the java arg "-Xmx".
Then the JVM manages its heap internally. Add this arg to java when you start Tomcat "-verbose:gc", this will cause information about garbage collection to be output. And show you data about the internal JVM memory usage. Regards, Glenn Billy Ng wrote: > I ran the Hello World page on the Tomcat's Servlet Examples, then kept > refreshing it.
