AEM JVM VM Behavioral Options

Behavioral Options

Option and Default Value	Description
-XX:-AllowUserSignalHandlers	Do not complain if the application installs signal handlers. (Relevant to Solaris and Linux only.)
-XX:AltStackSize=16384	Alternate signal stack size (in Kbytes). (Relevant to Solaris only, removed from 5.0.)
-XX:-DisableExplicitGC	By default calls to System.gc() are enabled (-XX:-DisableExplicitGC). Use -XX:+DisableExplicitGC to disable calls to System.gc(). Note that the JVM still performs garbage collection when necessary.
-XX:+FailOverToOldVerifier	Failover to old verifier when the new type checker fails. (Introduced in 6.)
-XX:+HandlePromotionFailure	The youngest generation collection does not require a guarantee of full promotion of all live objects. (Introduced in 1.4.2 update 11) [5.0 and earlier: false.]
-XX:+MaxFDLimit	Bump the number of file descriptors to the max. (Relevant  to Solaris only.)
-XX:PreBlockSpin=10	Spin count variable for use with -XX:+UseSpinning. Controls the maximum spin iterations allowed before entering the operating system thread synchronization code. (Introduced in 1.4.2.)
-XX:-RelaxAccessControlCheck	Relax the access control checks in the verifier. (Introduced in 6.)
-XX:+ScavengeBeforeFullGC	Do young generation GC prior to a full GC. (Introduced in 1.4.1.)
-XX:+UseAltSigs	Use alternate signals instead of SIGUSR1 and SIGUSR2 for VM internal signals. (Introduced in 1.3.1 update 9, 1.4.1. Relevant to Solaris only.)
-XX:+UseBoundThreads	Bind user-level threads to kernel threads. (Relevant to Solaris only.)
-XX:-UseConcMarkSweepGC	Use concurrent mark-sweep collection for the old generation. (Introduced in 1.4.1)
-XX:+UseGCOverheadLimit	Use a policy that limits the proportion of the VM's time that is spent in GC before an OutOfMemory error is thrown. (Introduced in 6.)
-XX:+UseLWPSynchronization	Use LWP-based instead of thread-based synchronization. (Introduced in 1.4.0. Relevant to Solaris only.)
-XX:-UseParallelGC	Use parallel garbage collection for scavenges. (Introduced in 1.4.1)
-XX:-UseParallelOldGC	Use parallel garbage collection for the full collections. Enabling this option automatically sets -XX:+UseParallelGC. (Introduced in 5.0 update 6.)
-XX:-UseSerialGC	Use serial garbage collection. (Introduced in 5.0.)
-XX:-UseSpinning	Enable naive spinning on Java monitor before entering the operating system thread synchronization code. (Relevant to 1.4.2 and 5.0 only.) [1.4.2, multi-processor Windows platforms: true]
-XX:+UseTLAB	Use thread-local object allocation (Introduced in 1.4.0, known as UseTLE prior to that.) [1.4.2 and earlier, x86 or with -client: false]
-XX:+UseSplitVerifier	Use the new type checker with StackMapTable attributes. (Introduced in 5.0.)[5.0: false]
-XX:+UseThreadPriorities	Use native thread priorities.
-XX:+UseVMInterruptibleIO	Thread interrupt before or with EINTR for I/O operations results in OS_INTRPT. (Introduced in 6. Relevant to Solaris only.)
