Which memory related Tomcat JVM startup parameters are worth tuning?


I'm trying to understand the fine art of tuning Tomcat memory settings. In this quest I have the following three questions:

  • Which memory related JVM startup parameters are worth setting when running Tomcat? Why?
  • What are useful rule-of-thumbs when fine-tuning the memory settings for a Tomcat installation?
  • How do you monitor the memory consumption of your live Tomcat installation?
