Changing the amount of memory available to a Striim server

By default, Striim uses a maximum of 4GB of Java heap memory for the server process.

To change that, edit striim/conf/startUp.properties and change the value of MEM_MAX. To increase maximum memory to, for example, 8GB, change the value to 8192m:

MEM_MAX=8192m

If Striim is running as a service in Microsoft Windows, also edit <striim home>/conf/windowsService/yajsw_server/conf/wrapper.conf and change the value of wrapper.java.additional.4 to match the value of MEM_MAX. For example:

wrapper.java.additional.4 = -Xmx8192m 

Then restart the server as described in Starting and stopping Striim Platform.
