SOAP-UI 3.5.1 - JVM Error followed by Performance Issue
I am making use of SOAP-UI 3.5.1. The application came with a default setting of jvm values - -Xms128m -Xmx1012m.
It had been working fine for few months.
Then, it had stopped to open up giving a JVM error,
“The JVM could not be started. The maximum heap size(-Xmx) might be too large or an antivirus or firewall tool could block the execution.”
According to http://www.soapui.org/forum/viewtopic.p ... 77&p=12901 ,the memory setting in the soapUI-3.5.1.vmoptions file should be changed.
As mentioned in the forum, after reducing the maximum heap size to -Xmx886m from -Xmx1012m, SOAP-UI is opening fine.
Note: Value -Xmx887m and beyond throws the same JVM error.
With such reduced memory value, when we work on SOAP-UI for a prolonged time, soap-ui becomes slow and sometimes hangs forever.
Our development work using SOAP-UI gets delayed because of such performance issues.
The system had a 2GB RAM setting. Later to the issue, RAM size has been increased to 3GB. This too did not help.
