Hi, What version of tomcat are you using? Regardless, you say that "I don't know Java very good and I don't understand how modify JVM parameters." And yet you seem convinced that you need to modify your JVM parameters? That kind of seems like a recipe for a disaster.
I will say this: you can gain a *ton* from properly tuning your JVM runtime options. However, you need to know your application really well, preferably profile it on an ongoing basis. You need to have a staging or test environment that is comparable to your production environment in scale, computing power, OS level and patches, JDK version, etc. That's the only way to validate these runtime option changes. Or... You could experiment and see what happens ;) All the options are available at: http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.1/docs/guide/performance/index.html Check out the VM options page and the performance and scalability guide. For tomcat 4.x, you can set these options in a number of places. A good one to start with is the $CATALINA_HOME/bin/catalina.sh (or atalina.bat if running on windows) file as your JAVA_OPTS variable.
