Java Out-of-Box (JAVAOOB)
new for
March 2002
Java Out-of-Box (JAVAOOB), version 1.0.00, is a small, installable product that modifies
HP-UX kernel parameters and system tunables to allow large server-side Java
applications to run.
While no claim is made that JAVAOOB will enable all Java applications to run (or that it
will cause any particular Java application to exhibit optimum performance), the
JAVAOOB parameter values were chosen to enable the widest range of Java applications
to run successfully without significant impact on other (non-Java) processes. (The
original default settings were too low to run the majority of Java applications.)
JAVAOOB modifies the following kernel parameters and system tunables:
maxusers 512
nproc 2048
max_thread_proc 3000
nkthread 6000
nfile 3000
