Hi all,
         I am using Jmeter to stress test my webserver.I have a Solaris 10
SPARC box with 32 GB RAM and 32 Processor machine.I tried stress testing
five webservers(installed on different platforms) from the same client, with
250 threads for each webserver.I had five different Jmeter processes.I had
only Non-SSL requests and the Jmeter was firing 1250 threads(250 for each of
the server X 5) without any issues.I had set the heap size to Xms=Xmx=
3072m.I had used 32-bit JDK 1.5.0_12 for Solaris 10.

        Now, with  the same client machine and setup, when I try to fire the
same number of threads using HTTPS(SSL), I get a java.lang.OutOfMemoryError:
Java heap space in the Jmeter log. I have tried increasing the heap size
upto 5 GB!! using a 64-bit JDK.But that doesnt help anyway.The total
available swap space is 34GB and its totally unused.I do not have any other
process running on the box except Jmeter.I provide the
hostname,port,protocol as command line properties.

        Is there any specific tunig I need to do while running HTTPS tests
in the Jmeter?Or any tuning could be done on the JVM side?

        Please give me some inputs.

regards,
Rajaraman
