On AIX, there is a flag called -Xgcpolicy:optavgpause that enables the concurrent for GC's. I'm looking for a similar flag for HP's JDK. I am working with a node pool (group of multiple JVM's that are typipcally 128mb to 1024mb in size). I'm noticing that when they do a full GC...that the STW is definitely hitting the resources on my HP SuperDome. Does HP have an equivalent flag similar to IBM's -Xgcpolicy:optavgpause <BR /><BR />Thank you!!!!
