I am working on a project, and am spending a fair bit of time trying to get the Java Virtual Machine to perform better. This is very much a black art and in reality there is not much out there in the ether to look at. I did however find this excellent page on the JVM Parameters you can use which provides much more information that “java -help” which only lists the basics.
The only downside is I would like to more information on what a load of the parameters do…. Anyway hope you find this useful.
