Is there a way to increase the heap size in Sahi?

    Hi Doug,

    Sahi is a java process, so you can change the heap size in either sahi.bat or in your ant target.

    Where it says

    java -cp ...

    you need

    java -Xms256m -Xmx256m -cp ...

    Xms is the starting size
    Xmx is the maximum size

    do you mean sahi.sh or sahi.bat? when I look in sahi.bat I don't see a line anywhere with "'java -cp" and in sahi.sh I see a line saying:

    java -classpath $SAHI_EXT_CLASS_PATH:$SAHI_CLASS_PATH net.sf.sahi.Proxy "$SAHI_HOME" "$SAHI_USERDATA_DIR_TMP"

    sahi.sh is for Linux, and sahi.bat is for Windows.

    java -cp is the same as java -classpath

    For example, in sahi.bat, change

    java -classpath %SAHI_EXT_CLASS_PATH%;%SAHI_CLASS_PATH% net.sf.sahi.Proxy "%SAHI_HOME%" "%SAHI_USERDATA_DIR_TMP%"

    to

    java -Xms256m -Xmx256m -classpath %SAHI_EXT_CLASS_PATH%;%SAHI_CLASS_PATH% net.sf.sahi.Proxy "%SAHI_HOME%" "%SAHI_USERDATA_DIR_TMP%"


    In sahi.sh, change

    java -classpath $SAHI_EXT_CLASS_PATH:$SAHI_CLASS_PATH net.sf.sahi.Proxy "$SAHI_HOME" "$SAHI_USERDATA_DIR_TMP"

    to

    java -Xms256m -Xmx256m -classpath $SAHI_EXT_CLASS_PATH:$SAHI_CLASS_PATH net.sf.sahi.Proxy "$SAHI_HOME" "$SAHI_USERDATA_DIR_TMP"
