    -Xmx512m That means the JVM will use 512mb of ram?

    Why not just java server?

    How much ram does the JVM take when you just use "java server"

    Can you make the JVM use as much ram as possilbe?

    Thanks.

    No, You can't make it use alot of ram it has a maxium of i think 1024mb. It's better to use more to run smoother but it wont directly take that much thats the maxium it will take if needed. If you have at least 2gb of ram make it say 1024

    Yes you can, if you give it too much though it will throw an error and the JVM won't start.

    And java -server, erm, i remember thefifthlord writing quite a lengthy topic about it a while ago in the 500+ section, you should search for posts/topics by him.

    @guy above, don't reply to a topic with false information.

    1. There is no maximum amount of ram, besides the maximum amount you have installed. My server has -Xmx7000m.

    2. It will not make it run smoother. If it uses more memory then you set, it will crash. Thats the point of setting it higher.

    3. It should be based on the amount of free ram you have with nothing running, minus 250MB.

    4. -server is a different way of processing, it has nothing to do with the actual memory. Its a different VM. (Virtual Machine)
