Java Runtime configuration
It is recommended to customize some variables:
export JAVA_OPTS="-Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true -Xmx1024m -XX:PermSize=128m -XX:MaxPermSize=256m -XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC -XX:+CMSClassUnloadingEnabled -XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC -XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError"
Paths in Windows-based systems
In Windows some paths, the user home for instance, usually contain spaces, which could be problematic with some development environments. Therefore the recommendations are:
- Place your LMF working copy under a path without spaces
- Tomcat, and maybe other servlet containers, are not happy with such paths
- Configure related tools (maven and so on) to use a home path also without spaces; these are some of the environment variables involved
Internally LMF uses a relational database to persist the data using a custom and efficient schema.
For instance, for creating such database in PostgreSQL you'd need to execute something like:
$ su # su - postgres $ psql postgres=# CREATE USER lmf WITH PASSWORD 'lmf'; postgres=# CREATE DATABASE lmf WITH OWNER lmf;
Then you'd need to configure the access to it, using the userConfig.properties file or through the web interface under LMF core.
These performance tricks may be of your interest.
