Hi ranchers,
While tuning my eclipse.ini file, i noticed, with visualVM, that although the -server parameter was read, the
java vm itself was running in client mode.
This will only happen on win32 machines because in 64 bits and other (decent) OS the vm itself is able to determine its mode.
For those interested, here's the data:
Runtime Platform: Hotspot VM (Sun's jdk 1.6.0_14) 32 bits on Windows XP
Eclipse: 3.5 (Galileo)
eclipse.ini file contents:
If you run visualvm and connect it to the eclipse process, you will see the '-server' parameter under the tab 'jvm arguments'. But it shows, in the overview tab, the JVM as 'Java HotSpot(TM)
Client VM (14.0-b16, mixed mode)'
I suspect that's related to the equinox's initialization, I tried the -server parameter on other parts of the eclipse.ini file to no avail.
Does anyone know more about this issue?
Thanks in advance,
Carlos
