Hi, Sorry the content of the mail was bit messed up ,i have corrected the settings wordings please read the below text
To make our tomcat heap size memory to 8 GB we have set the below settings -Xms8192M -Xmx8192M -Xss1024K -XX:PermSize=64m -XX:MaxPermSize=256m -Dfile.encoding=Cp1252 Please suggest is this ok ? as we are observing the maximum heap size memory for tomcat gets a reduced bit to around 7756736K and it keeps flucatating.Is this normal behaviour The OS we are using is Linux 8. - Well we are using 64 bit JDK - We are prinitng the heap mem using Log 4J utitiy in the apllication logs.
