max heap size on 64 bit red hat linux 5

created by Zippy Zeppoli in Performance Tuning - View the full discussion

Hi everyone,
I searched the Red Hat and Oracle JVM docs (sun jvm docs gone) and I wasn't able to find the answer to my question.

I am wondering what the real max heap size is on RHEL 5 64 bit for JBoss AS 5?

My understanding is that on a 64 bit process the memory references use a good deal of the heap space.
For example, if I have a 10G max heap, it's not really going to use all of that space right?

About what would it be? And whats the max limit on a 64 bit system?

 

 

Thanks in advance.
