Before You Begin

Because the Profiler is very memory intensive, you should significantly increase the memory for both your server and the Netbeans Java Virtual Machine (JVM).

To increase your server’s memory,

1. Open the Netbeans window and select the Runtime tab.

2. Expand the Servers node, right-click Bundled Tomcat, and select Properties from the menu.

3. When the Server Manager dialog displays, clear the Enable HTTP Monitor box on the Connection tab.

4. Select the Platform tab, set VM Options to -Xmx1024M, and then click Close.

To increase the Netbeans JVM memory,

1. Open the netbeans-installation-dir \etc\netbeans.conff file and locate the following line:

   netbeans_default_options="-J-Xms32m -J-Xmx ...

2. Change the -J-Xmx value to -J-Xmx 1024M.

3. Save, and then close the file.

When you are finished, you can start the Profiler as described in the next section.
