Tomcat only needs the JRE, but the JDK contains some interesting tools that you may find useful. Make sure you get a 1.6 or later level of either. If you're running on a 64-bit platform, use the 64-bit JRE/JDK. If you do use a 64-bit JVM, only the server mode is available. > 2.

You cannot set the heap anywhere near that large unless you're running on a 64-bit JVM. > do I need to look at the server threads? if yes then where to I set > that option?

You will need way more than 8 threads in any real-world environment. The JVM will use as many cores as are available. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
