Java memory question
« on: January 14, 2017, 03:16:34 PM »

I have watched the video on how increase the memory, but I noticed a discrepancy in my vmparams file and the one he has in video.  On the specific line where we are changing memory his shows:
 -Xms1024m -Xmx1024m

My file has extra characters not in his video:
-Xms1024m -Xmx1024m -Xss1024k


That -Xss bit has me stumped as it is not in the video. I can easily change the memory as instructed, but don't know what to do with that last bit.
Any words of wisdom on this would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Leave -Xss alone.

You can ignore the Xss setting, that's the thread stack size and has nothing directly to do with memory allocation.
