Setting Available Memory for the Xpress Insight Server

The default installation sets the maximum amount of memory that the Xpress Insight server is allowed to use to be 2 gigabytes.
The default setting should be adequate for typical usage of the system; however very large models may require that the limit be increased. We advise that the limit should not exceed the amount of physical RAM installed in the machine. Complete the following steps to set the available memory:

Windows

  1. The limit is set using the format -Xmx2048M in <installdir>/insight/server/wildfly-15.0.1.Final/bin/standalone.conf.bat. The limit can also be specified in gigabytes, for example –Xmx2G.
  2. Restart the server so that the changes to the memory limit take effect.

Red Hat Enterprise Linux

  1. The limit is set using the format -Xmx2048M in /etc/sysconfig/xpress-insight-server, as part of the JAVA_OPTS string. The limit can also be specified in gigabytes, for example –Xmx2G.
  2. Restart the server so that the changes to the memory limit take effect, using the instruction service xpress-insight-server restart.
