The JVM grows the heap from a specified minimum to a specified maximum. If you have sufficient memory, fix the size of the heap by setting minimum and maximum to the same value. This allows the JVM to reserve its entire heap at startup, optimizing organization and eliminating potentially expensive resizing.

By default, PingAccess fixes the Java heap at 512 megabytes (MB). This is a fairly small footprint and not optimal for supporting higher concurrent user loads over extended periods of activity. If you expect your deployment of PingAccess to serve more than 50 concurrent users, per PingAccess node, if deploying a cluster, increase the heap size.
