Performance and Tuning Considerations
The most important factor in optimizing the performance of your enterprise
deployment topology is understanding how to monitor its behavior and resource
usage. Oracle Application Server provides several tools to help. See Oracle Application
Server 10g Performance Guide for more information on how to monitor your installation.
In addition, most hardware vendors supply a number of tools to monitor hardware
resource usage.
This chapter contains the following reference information to help you tune your
deployment topology’s performance.
■ Origin Server (OS) Network Parameters
■ Oracle HTTP Server (OHS)
■ SSL
■ Oracle Internet Directory (OID)
■ JVM parameters
■ JSPs
■ Web Cache
■ Logging Level
■ Database Connections
■ Portal
6.1 Origin Server (OS) Network Parameters
Ensure that your OS network parameters have been set for performance and that you
have sufficient network capacity. See the Oracle Application Server 10g Performance Guide
for more information.
6.2 Oracle HTTP Server (OHS)
Understand how to use the MaxClients parameter for OHS to control concurrency for
your Application Server configuration. Understand when to use persistent connections
with OHS (keep alive) and how long to maintain a persistent connection. Each
persistent connection will use an Apache child process (on Unix). See the Oracle
Application Server 10g Performance Guide for more information.
