memory management

[Derrick Koes <De...@skillsoft.com>]

I found many questions and answers about this general topic, but my question is more specific I think.

Tomcat 5 comes with a configuration utility which is installed on the start menu on Windows XP under Start-->Programs-->Apache Tomcat 5.0-->Configure Tomcat.  This pop-up has a Java tab which has two memory settings, Initial memory pool and Maximum memory pool.

My question is does the tomcat Windows service obey these settings, or do I have to re-create the service with new memory parameters each time I want to increase the memory (add a web application for example).

Thanks,
Derrick

The Configure utility sets the service parameters, so after each change, 
you will need to restart the service.

Is that what you were asking?
