Has Oracle’s definition of a server-class machine changed between releases 5.0, 6 and 7 of the JVM?
The latest specification I can find is for 5.0, which defines a server-class machine as:
- 2 or more physical processors
- 2 or more Gbytes of physical memory
Here is the link for the java 7: http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/technotes/guides/vm/server-class.html
