Initialization and the LOA

The LOA boundary is calculated when the heap is initialized, and recalculated after every garbage collection. The size of the LOA can be controlled using command-line options: -Xloainitial and -Xloamaximum.

The options take values between 0 and 0.95 (0% thru 95% of the current tenure heap size). The defaults are:

• -Xloainitial0.05 (5%)
• -Xloaminimum0 (0%)
• -Xloamaximum0.5 (50%)
