Learn Tomcat Java JVM Code Cache Updates

Blackboard Learn 9.1 Q2 2018 

To meet Java 8 default performance requirements, we recommend that Blackboard Learn system administrators for Self-Hosted environments increase code cache settings for Tomcat JVM. These changes help maintain application performance.

You can find and update the settings using these steps:

1.    Open bb-config.properties 

2.    Locate the following properties and update the values:

  • bbconfig.jvm.options.codecache.reserved=240m
  • bbconfig.jvm.options.codecache.initial=128m

3.    Save the changes and run PushConfigUpdates.sh to apply the changes to your environment.
