These are not Torque settings but Java Virtual Machine settings. The Sun defaults are kind of small and for any large active application, you need to increase them by starting your Java VM with larger values.
These are set by the command line parameters of: -Xms<size> Initial heap size -Xmx<size> Maximum heap size E.g: JVM -Xms512m -Xmx1024m ... Most environments have a way to set or add JVM parameters, for example Tomcat 5, has a nice monitor/config tool that lets you set this in a gui. Older versions had an environment variable you could set. Going back thru my load testing notes (from a year ago), I also logged that we needed to increase the number of threads the server could handle on the Tomcat web server connectors elements in the server.xml. The issue I'm remembering might have been related to there not being enough threads available when pool asked for one. Another though is that you might add the following to your torque properties: torque.dsfactory.eMarine.pool.testOnBorrow=true torque.dsfactory.eMarine.pool.validationQuery=SELECT 1 This will add a little overhead, i.e. SELECT 1 query before each pool checkout. But it will catch any connections that have timed out at the server end or were established in the pool prior to the DB server being restarted. The pooling software will then create a new connection object for you. Re - Closing connections. A connection.commit() should not close a connection. It is only a transaction commit action. You may still want to use it to do more db actions using the same connection. You should always close any connections to return them to the pool. FWIW, I believe that a close will also force a commit, but that would be jdbc driver specific. To be safe, do a commit then close. Also, you might want to consider using Torque's Transaction class instead of getting connections directly. This has some logic that handle various DB specific transaction oddities. This would make your code more portable. > -----Original Message----- > From: Jim Caserta [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Wednesday, February 01, 2006 8:31 AM > To: Apache Torque Users List > Subject: RE: Pooled Connections Question - V 3.2 RC-2 -= Java/DB2 > > > When you say the "maximum memory pool", you are > refering to the "pool.maxActive" number.. correct? > > And leave the "maxidle" where it is?
