JVM Heap Sizes

The application objects (such as Ideas, Proposals, Timesheets, Projects, Activities, etc.) are stored in the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) heap allocation. Most of these objects are short-lived and are periodically cleaned up by the JVM's garbage collection mechanism. As the number of concurrent users increases, performance and scalability is affected by the available heap space in the JVM. Increasing the heap size is an easy way to achieve desired performance and scalability. Oracle recommends using a 6GB heap for better results.
