JVM Performance Tuning

Hi,
I am a weblogic Admin
when tuning a performance Env.. JVM parameters becomes the backbone and the following questions has to be clarified.
1) What could be the maximum heap size can be allocated to process in java1.5
2) which process will give good performance (a) -XMs512m -Xmx512m / (b) -XMs512m -Xmx1024m
3) Is it better to start a process in 32-bit or 64-bit mode
4) what is the major difference between IBM-JVM and Sun Hotspot JVM
Can anyone please provide your input on this.

2) which process will give good performance (a) -XMs512m -Xmx512m / (b) -XMs512m -Xmx1024mIf the process will never need more than 512m of heap there is no difference,
if the process needs to grow the heap that will have an impact while the heap is being increased.
3) Is it better to start a process in 32-bit or 64-bit modeI guess that means you are running Solaris 64-bit.
You need to run 64-bit Java to allocate heap larger than 4GB.
4) what is the major difference between IBM-JVM and Sun Hotspot JVMToo open-ended to answer. Try a search engine.

Performance tuning for new OFMW environment

Hello
We have just set up a new UAT environment entirely on all Oracle FMW latest products which includes:
1) OS -RHEL V5
2) WebCenter
3) SOA Suite
4) Database
5) IDM
6) HTTP Server
7) WebLogic Server
As as post infrastructure setup plan we need to to performance tuning as well. Shall we do only WLS performance tuning or we need to tune each and every product in order to get optimum results.
Any guide? resource to help?
Pls advice
Regards
Dev

When you install the product soa-suite (and probably webcenter too) a prerequisite check is performed
that gives information about packages and parameters that need to be adjusted on your operating system.
For products that run on WebLogic Server you probably have to tune the JVM, examples can be found here:
- http://middlewaremagic.com/weblogic/?p=6930 (discusses JRockit)
- http://middlewaremagic.com/weblogic/?p=7083 (focuses on Coherence, but the considerations can be applied to other environments as well)
Examples that set-up the SOA-Suite can be found here:
- http://middlewaremagic.com/weblogic/?p=6040 (discusses considerations when installing the SOA suite)
- http://middlewaremagic.com/weblogic/?p=6872 (discusses considerations when adding the web-tier to the SOA suite)
The enterprise deployment guides can help too:

Performance Tuning Guide Needed.

I've seen numerous references to a "Performance Tuning Guide" Is there
any way this document could be posted on the weblogic customer
downloads.
We desperately need this information. Even with working with Support so
far the process has been trial and error. Try this, then try that. I've
burnt many days just playing around with the properties and so far no
luck.
I've read just about every post in the performance newsgroup. Some seem
to be the same types of problems we are currently facing. Great
response when there are about 50 users. Horrible around 65. Slowness
doesn't seem to be gradual. All of a sudden it starts to crawl. So far
I haven't seen any posts regarding solutions (weblogic.properties
settings) which I could try and use.
We are currently using weblogic 4.0.3 on AIX 4.3 with Oracle 8.i. No
native performance pack for that release. Will upgrading to 4.5.1
increase performance dramatically? Our application is very database
dependent. We use a the weblogic connection pool using Oracle's jdbc
thin driver. Note Oracle's OCI driver has numerous bugs related to CLOB
and BLOB retrieval which are used heavily in our database.
Thanks,

Hi Don,
I can't comment on the public posting of the Capacity Planning document.
However, I can say that there is no magic formula for optimizing your
WebLogic application. The biggest things to look at are the application
design and code (e.g., unnecessary synchronization code), DBMS configuration
and database design, JVM heap size (bigger is not always better), number of
execute threads (more is not always better), number of database connections
in the pool, whether or not you are using the performance pack, how much
other activity is happening on the server machine, etc. I can tell you that
trying to simulate a large number of clients from a single JVM client (using
lots of threads) will lead you to believe that the server is having problems
when it is really the client software/hardware that is often the limiting
factor. In many of our large benchmarks, we end up using significantly more
hardware for driving the clients than for running the server(s).
Sorry I don't have any better answers for you,
Robert

Performance tuning: lite sessions and local ServletContext

I have been doing some research on iPlanet performance tuning. In our
current production environment (iAS6.0 SP1B, iWS4.1 SP2 on Solaris), since
we don't use clustering there should be a couple of performance improvements
we can make immediately:
1. Use lite sessions (<session-impl>lite</session-impl> in ias-web.xml) - I
believe that if you use lite sessions, the session data is stored in the kjs
process space as opposed to the kxs process space. This, of course, means
that if a kjs dies the user's on it will lose their session information but
it will provide a performance improvement by reducing kxs/kjs communication.
2. Use local ServletContexts (<distributable>false</distributable> in
web.xml) - This should cause the ServletContext to only be stored in the
originating JVM. So again, if a kjs dies, the user will lose their
ServletContext but again we will get a performance improvement by reducing
kxs/kjs communcation.
What I want to understand is how our load balancing configuration will
effect our production environment if we use this configuration. Right now
we use sticky load balancing on all our servlets but we don't have our JSPs
registered and therefore sticky load balancing cannot always be trusted to
return users to the iAS they came from. We make up for this by using
hardware load balancing that keeps the majority of our users sticky.
However, using lite sessions and local ServletContexts will require that a
user not only stick to an iAS, but to a specific kjs as well. Using sticky
load balancing would ensure that, but since we also rely on our hardware
load balancers, could they create a problem? If a user gets sent back to
the iAS they came from by our hardware load balancers, will the kxs process
be smart enough to return them to the kjs they came from? If so, then I
think that means that we can safely switch to lite sessions and local
ServletContexts, but if not, I think many users will lose their sessions.

Linc

Capacity planning (performance tuning of WLP 8.1 SP6 application)

Hi Guys,
I have one question regarding the performance tuning of the weblogic portal application (or may be any J2EE application for that matter) :
I understand that there could be lot of performance bottleneck areas e.g
(a) network issues (not enough bandwidth),
(b) bottleneck because of the DBs,
(c) application design/coding
(d) JVM might not have been tuned as per the business requirement of the application
(e) lack of clustering
(f) hardware problems (CPUs, RAMs etc)
Inorder to do the capacity planning for such an enterprise applications, what would be the best starting point?
Is it a good idea to start and profile the application using some profiling tools like OptimizeIt or JProbe? and then analyze the profiling the data and conclusion can be drawn interms of what and where the major bottleneck is into the application and accordingly it can be worked upon.
Or if there is any better and elegant way doing capacity planning?
Thanks for your time.
Regards
Jameel

Hi
id say start with a load tool that simulates average/ peak behavior with varied inputs and exercise your site . then profile if necessary.
Also start with the critical/most used portions of your site.
Its difficult doing the above because unles your migrating noone really knows the expected usage of your site. And its hard for someone to specify acceptable response times.

Weblogic workshop based webapp - performance tuning

We have built webapp is using WLW8.1SP5. It is simple webapp that is serving a page with 4 gifs. The performance test is being done using two WL servers (1GB JVM RAM) each on dual core 4 CPU Linux with 16G RAM on the servers. The CPU utilization etc is very low but page visits are limited to 70 per second across the two instances and the response time is little over 1 sec. there is no DB interaction for rendering the page.
Quite surprised by the high response time given the simolicity of the page and horsepower available on the machines.
Seeking help for suggestions as to what to look for in WLW confiuration file/parameter from performance tuning perspective? the garbage collector is behaving normally, cpu is not more than 30% at 70 page visits per second, heapsize is also not the bottleneck, nor Weblogic execute thread counts.

Hi Tariq,
You could make sure the server is running production mode and the workshop runtime is also set to production mode.
The weblogic.jws.ProductionMode=true property in the startweblogic.cmd file affect this
the following url discusses additional in on deploying a workshop application to production
http://e-docs.bea.com/workshop/docs81/doc/en/workshop/guide/howdoi/howDeployWebLogicWorkshopWebServicestoaProductionServer.html
just curios.. do you have plans to upgrade to a newer version of Workshop ? If yes, which version are you looking at

Report running for long time & performance tuning

Hi All,
(1). WebI report is running for long time.so what are the steps i need to check for it ?
(2). Can you tell me about performance tuning in BO ?
please help me.....
Thanks
Kumar

(1). WebI report is running for long time.so what are the steps i need to check for it ?
The first step is to see if the problem lies in the query on the data source or in webi itself. Depending on the data source there are different ways to extract the query and try to run it against the database. Which source does your report uses?
(2). Can you tell me about performance tuning in BO ?
I would recommend to start by reading the administrator's guide. There is a section about how to improve performance.

Oracle 11g Performance tuning approach ?

Hello Experts,
Is it the right forum to follow oracle performance tuning discussions ? If not, let me know what will be the forum to pick up some thread on this subject.
I am looking for performance tuning approach for oracle 11g. I learned there are some new items in 11g in this regard. For persons, who did tuning in earlier versions of Oracle,
what will be the best way adopt to 11 g?
I reviewed the 11g performance tuning guide, but I am looking for some white papers/blogs with case studies and practical approaches. I hope that you have used them.
What are the other sources to pick up some discussions?
Do you mind, share your thoughts?
Thanks in advance.

Performance tuning of BPEL processes in SOA Suite 11g

Hi,
We are working with a customer for performance tuning of SOA Suite 11g, one of the areas is to tune the BPEL processes. I am new to this and started out with stress testing Hello World process using SOAPUI tool. I would like help with the below topics -
1. How do I interpret the statistics collected during stress testing? Do we have any benchmark set that can indicate that the performance is ok.
2. Do we need to run stress tests for every BPEL process deployed?
2. Is there any performance tuning strategy documentation available? Or can anybody share his/her experiences to guide me?
Thanks in advance!
Sritama

1. How do I interpret the statistics collected during stress testing? Do we have any benchmark set that can indicate that the performance is ok.
You need
pay attention to:
java heap usage vs java heap capacity
java eden usage vs java eden capacity
JDBC pool initial connections vs JDBC pool capacity connections
if you are using linux: top
if you are using aix: topas
2. Do we need to run stress tests for every BPEL process deployed?
yes, you need test each BPEL. You can use "Jmeter" tool.
Download Jmeter from here: Apache JMeter - Apache JMeter&trade;
Other tools:
jstat
jstack
jps -v
Enterprise Manager
WebLogic Console
VisualVM
JRockit Mission Control
3. Is there any performance tuning strategy documentation available? Or can anybody share his/her experiences to guide me?
I recommend "Oracle SOA Suite 11g Performance Tuning Cookbook" http://www.amazon.com/Oracle-Suite-Performance-Tuning-Cookbook/dp/1849688842/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1378482031&sr=8-1&keywords=oracle+soa+suite+11g+performance+tuning+cookbook

[ADF-11.1.2] Proof of view performance tuning in oracle adf

Hello,
Take an example of : http://www.gebs.ro/blog/oracle/adf-view-object-performance-tuning-analysis/
It tells me perfectly how to tune VO to achieve performance, but how to see it working ?
For example: I Set Fetch size of 25, 'in Batch of' set to 1 or 26 I see following SQL Statement in Log
[1028] SELECT Company.COMPANY_ID, Company.CREATED_DATE, Company.CREATED_BY, Company.LAST_MODIFY_DATE, Company.LAST_MODIFY_BY, Company.NAME FROM COMPANY Companyas if it is fetching all the records from table at a time no matter what's the size of Batch. If I am seeing 50 records on UI at a time, then I would expect at least 2 SELECT statement fetching 26 records by each statement if I set Batch Size to 26... OR at least 50 SELECT statement for Batch size set to '1'.
Please tell me how to see view performance tuning working ? How one can say that setting batch size = '1' is bad for performance?

Anandsagar,
why don't you just read up on http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E21764_01/core.1111/e10108/adf.htm#CIHHGADG
there are more factors influencing performance than just query. Btw, indexing your queries also helps to tune performance

Performance tuning in PL/SQL code

Hi,
I am working on already existing PL/SQL code which is written by someone else on validation and conversion of data from a temporary table to base table. It usually has 3.5 million rows. and the procedure takes arount 2.5 - 3 hrs to complete.
Can I enhance the PL/SQL code for better performance ? or, is this OK to take so long to process these many rows?
Thanks!
Yogini

Can I enhance the PL/SQL code for better performance ? Probably you can enhance it.
or, is this OK to take so long to process these many rows? It should take a few minutes, not several hours.
But please provide some more details like your database version etc.
I suggest to TRACE the session that executes the PL/SQL code, with WAIT events, so you'll see where and on what time is spent, you'll identify your 'problem statements very quickly' (after you or your DBA have TKPROF'ed the trace file).
SQL> alter session set events '10046 trace name context forever, level 12';
SQL> execute your PL/SQL code here
SQL> exitWill give you a .trc file in your udump directory on the server.
http://www.oracle-base.com/articles/10g/SQLTrace10046TrcsessAndTkprof10g.php
Also this informative thread can give you more ideas:
HOW TO: Post a SQL statement tuning request - template posting
as well as doing a search on 10046 at AskTom, http://asktom.oracle.com will give you more examples.

Performance tuning in CRM server

Hi everyone,
My CRM server working very slow. Idont know the exact reason. My server configuration IBM Xeon processor 3 Ghz 3GB RAM.There are about 25 users. Is this problem with SAP or Hardware.If any one have performance tuning document plz post it.
Thanks,
Murali

Chech the following:-
Processor usage
Ram usage
background jobs
how many user at a time
what kind of job they do
Any Network Problem
Increse Work Processor
increase Virtual Ram
And for 25 users, You need System with 2 CPU and 4 Gb Ram
