What is Memory tuning: -XX:NewSizeThreadIncrease?

Usage:

You can change increment size for heap with:

-XX:NewSizeThreadIncrease=size, where size is one the amount of memory in Kilobytes.

Examples:

Will set the increment size to 1024 Kilobytes:

-XX:NewSizeThreadIncrease=1024

Description:

The JVM heap grows during the run of the application. As more threads created in a server application, the object allocation rate will increase with the number of active threads. The number of active threads is considered when adjusting the size of the young space, after a garbage collection. This flag specifies, in Kilobytes, the increment in young object space size, per active thread, to accomodate potentially faster object allocation rate. For applications that frequently create a lot of objects modifying the value for this options could boost performance.

Default Value:

System-dependent

Errors:

None
