Workaround to avoid OutOfMemoryErrors during jboss boot, under Sun 64-bit linux jdk ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBAS-3110 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBAS-3110 Project: JBoss Application Server Issue Type: Sub-task Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Components: System service Affects Versions: JBossAS-4.0.2 Final, JBossAS-4.0.3 SP1 Reporter: Dimitris Andreadis Assigned To: Dimitris Andreadis Fix For: JBossAS-4.0.4.GA, JBossAS-5.0.0.Beta Time Spent: 30 minutes Remaining Estimate: 0 minutes This is just a work-around for avoiding OutOfMemoryErrors during jboss boot, when running under Sun 64-bit linux jdk. It doesn't guarantee the OOME will not happen, but this is better than nothing, until Sun fixes the broken jdk. The fix has been tested in HEAD for 3 months without any problems reported so we apply it to the 4.0.x branch, too. For more info, read the linked forum post.
