Another question , Which is the prefered way of setting the memory setting in jbossweb as a service using etc/init.d/ script, either using CATALINA_OPTS="-Xms256M -Xmx1000M" or the setting JAVA_OPTS in bin/catalina.sh ? I also sometime saw somewhere the CATALINA_OPTS being set in the bash profile environment file. Of course , in start as a service /auto start on boot context.
