title: Specify optimal minimum and maximum heap size for JBoss
body: <p>I have a web application that I want to deploy for production on a Linux machine. The machine will run on JBoss 4.2.3 and in front of it will be the latest version of Apache Web Server (using mod_jk). That's the only two applications residing on the machine. The server has 1.7GB RAM. I would appreciate some information or reference on how can I find the optimal minimum (-Xms) and maximum (-Xmx) heap size for JBoss on this production environment.</p>
  
  <p>Regards</p>
