What does peak CPU have to do with it? All programs use significant
CPU time every now and then... but usually not for long periods of
time. App servers typically don't use much CPU time unless they are
under heavy load... and if you have sites frequently under heavy load
then chances are a shared server isn't a good idea anyway. So, what's
the point?

sounds like you got it working on shared server, based on my
experience
when seems lot less than yours, I don't see how more than one instance
can share when another instance is running 70-90% cpu, at peak times.
I would guess it is like a bare-bones system with out many threads, or
activity.

OFBiz will definitely work on a shared server, I've worked with
dozens
of clients who have done that. It isn't too hard to fit half a dozen
instances on a single low-end (but modern) server, with databases for
each too. Of course, shared server approaches are as varied as
holidays
around the world and there are many variations where OFBiz would
not run.
Running in 256M would be pretty tight, even for a low-traffic site.
Is
that the amount of memory available to the OS, or to the JVM? If it
is
the memory available to the OS, and if there is no database also
running
on the box (which would definitely make 256M too little), then the -
Xmx
parameter should be about 2/3 of your memory (the 256M). If that is
the
amount available to the JVM, then set -Xmx to 256M, and -Xms to the
same
thing (on a dedicated server no use having Java play with expanding
and
contracting the memory it uses).

Ofbiz will not work on a shared server.
there are times it will use 70-90% of the CPU time.

All,
It's been a while since I've worked with OFBIZ but the time has
come to
resume working with it.
I know the answer to my question (sort of) but need some guidance
from some
good JAVA guys... (YOU!)
Overview:
Godaddy's virtual dedicated servers are setup with virtuoso, they
alocate
only the needed memory up to what you have for max (me = 256mb)
This
should
be fine as I've gotten a test box with that to run OFBIZ.
I have everything setup; Ant, JDK1.6,ofbiz svn exported.
Centos 5
When I go to do an ant run-install-seed I get:
Error occurred during initialization of VM
Could not reserve enough space for object heap
Could not create the Java virtual machine.
I've inserted an alias into my /etc/profile.d/java.sh (same as
bashrc
but
cleaner for CENT/RHEL products) so that I have:
export JAVA_HOME=/opt/jdk1.6.0_13/jre
PATH=$PATH:$JAVA_HOME/bin
alias java='java -Xms2m -Xmx16m'
I'm told the Xms and Xmx will help lower the memory hogging that
java
wants
to do, but I'm having little success. I'm fine with java -version
and javac
-version. So JVM itself is working, but I think it's trying to
grab too
much memory that the virtual server core won't grant me at one
time.
Has anyone worked this this type of thing?
Thanks!!
