Patch Set 2: > you might want to update the README.developer with guidelines on settings new > default /tmp settings? or they remind the same, just able to be overwritten? Right, I'll need to update README.developer file, too. For java.io.tmpdir, default value is defined by JVM implementation [1]. On Linux, default value is /tmp. [1] http://stackoverflow.com/a/1924576 For Java Preference subsystem (similar to Windows Registry in its purpose), default value is defined in JDK code [2]. On Linux, java.util.prefs.systemRoot is /etc/.java and java.util.prefs.userRoot is ~/.userPrefs. Java Preference subsystem is rather useless, but since it's part of JVM bootstrap, and since it *cannot* be easily disabled via some config option [2], the easiest way is to customize these two java.util.prefs.* options. [2] http://allaboutbalance.com/articles/disableprefs/ When doing parallel (Maven/JVM) builds, user must ensure that java.io.tmpdir + java.util.prefs.systemRoot + java.util.prefs.userRoot point to some build-specific directory. > The -Djava.io.tmpdir -Djava.util.prefs.systemRoot -Djava.util.prefs.userRoot > should not be removed as these are workaround of gwt plugin bugs that should > be resolved within the plugin one day. Not sure I follow here. As I mentioned above, these 3 options need customization *only* when doing parallel builds, otherwise their default values are sensible. The fact that GWT compiler generates *tons* of temp files does not imply the need to customize java.io.tmpdir. It just implies the need to check "ulimit -n" as done in Makefile when BUILD_LOCALES=1. > The jvm options should also remain, as you cannot expect the entire maven to > have by default the memory requirements of the forked process. Users should use MAVEN_OPTS env. variable which defines global JVM arguments when running Maven. For example: export MAVEN_OPTS="-Xms1024M -Xmx8192M -XX:PermSize=512M -XX:MaxPermSize=1024M" Maven JVM will use settings in MAVEN_OPTS, GWT compiler JVM (child of Maven JVM spawned via gwt-maven-plugin) will inherit these settings too. > You can enable override... but by default the maven should take less > resources. If the user is concerned about memory consumption, we can introduce extra override in "gwt-plugin.extraJvmArgs", for example: <gwt-plugin.extraJvmArgs> -Dgwt.jjs.permutationWorkerFactory=com.google.gwt.dev.ThreadedPermutationWorkerFactory \ -Dgwt.jjs.maxThreads=4 \ ${gwt.extraJvmArgs} </gwt-plugin.extraJvmArgs> With above, users can use MAVEN_OPTS for global settings + use -Dgwt.extraJvmArgs=xxx to tune GWT compiler JVM specifically. In general, the cost of introducing extra properties is higher than the cost of simply using MAVEN_OPTS env. variable. -- To view, visit http://gerrit.ovirt.org/36739 To unsubscribe, visit http://gerrit.ovirt.org/settings Gerrit-MessageType: comment Gerrit-Change-Id: Iaeb92d69f2ba38746559df3e44f34a61fd880908 Gerrit-PatchSet: 2 Gerrit-Project: ovirt-engine Gerrit-Branch: master Gerrit-Owner: Vojtech Szocs <vsz...@redhat.com> Gerrit-Reviewer: Alexander Wels <aw...@redhat.com> Gerrit-Reviewer: Alon Bar-Lev <alo...@redhat.com> Gerrit-Reviewer: Barak Korren <bkor...@redhat.com> Gerrit-Reviewer: David Caro <dcaro...@redhat.com> Gerrit-Reviewer: Einav Cohen <eco...@redhat.com> Gerrit-Reviewer: Eyal Edri <ee...@redhat.com> Gerrit-Reviewer: Lior Vernia <lver...@redhat.com> Gerrit-Reviewer: Sandro Bonazzola <sbona...@redhat.com> Gerrit-Reviewer: Vojtech Szocs <vsz...@redhat.com> Gerrit-Reviewer: automat...@ovirt.org Gerrit-Reviewer: oVirt Jenkins CI Server Gerrit-HasComments: No _______________________________________________ Engine-patches mailing list Engine-patches@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/engine-patches
