Hi,

I have a query regarding memory usage for Dspace and Tomcat. I rather 
unthinkingly allocate memory to Tomcat in a simple manner eg...

JAVA_OPTS="-Xms1024m -Xmx1024m -XX:PermSize=256m -XX:MaxPermSize=256m......

Using jconsole to look at the way the memory is allocated to the different 
generations I see that it is allocated in favour of the tenured generation at a 
ratio of 2:1. Dspace being a webapp, none of the objects last long enough to 
ever reach the tenured generation meaning that 2/3 of the allocated memory sits 
unused. So the question is, should I be forcing more of the memory to be 
allocated to the young generation ? 

Have I misunderstood something here ?

Cheers, Robin.
