You should be able to set your JAVA_OPTS or MAVEN_OPTS. I wouldn't worry about Tomcat running as a service on your local machine - I'd just start it from the command line using "catalina.bat run" - that way you can see the logs in a console.
Here's what I use in my JAVA_OPTS - I haven't seen a permgen issue in months. -Xms768M -Xmx768M -XX:PermSize=256m -XX:MaxPermSize=512m -Djava.awt.headless=true -XX:+CMSClassUnloadingEnabled -XX:+CMSPermGenSweepingEnabled -XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC Matt On 12/13/07, René Günther <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I want to change JAVA_OPTIONS when I execute jetty:run.
