MAX_HEAP_SIZE in webi.properties - should match what?

Hi Folks–

We recently upgraded tomcat and bumped up the memory for our webserver (tomcat), and I’m not sure how to adjust the MAX_HEAP_SIZE setting in the webi.properties files. It had been

MAX_HEAP_SIZE=1024000000

before the tomcat upgrade wiped out the setting. We’re now up to 2.5 GB (2056MB) – should I make it that, or leave at 1024000000? I’ve seen postings with a variety of numbers for MAX_HEAP_SIZE, but am not sure how to adjust, and certainly don’t want to do the wrong thing!

Thanks,
Amy
