JIT and UNIX

Postby andres656 » Tue Apr 15, 2008 8:39 am

Can i modify the size of the codeCacheSize for UNIX VM?

The documentation say:

codeCacheSize
The -mcXXXX command-line option, which sets the size (in bytes) of the
dynamic translation code cache on OS/2 and Windows.

But nothing for UNIX OS.

Thanks
Andrés

The description of the .INI file virtual machine option 'codeCacheSize' is incorrect. It should match the description of the -mc commandline parameter. The value specified is used on all platforms.

We will correct the documentation for the next release (case 35046):
This option (which can be overridden by the -mc commandline argument) sets the size (in bytes) of the dynamic translation code cache. Use codeCacheSize=0 (or any value less than the minimum size of 262,144) to disable dynamic translation. This option applies only to the current session; the value is not saved in the image. The default code cache size is 2,000,000.
