jdev.conf

Thease are my JDeveloper "performence" settings I use today:

- tools->preferences->extensions
I disabled all the extentions I do not currently use such as ADF, Webcenter ...

I edited my jdev conf file ("C:\java\jdevstudio10133\jdev\bin\jdev.conf") and added/changed the following parameteres:

AddVMOption -Dsun.java2d.noddraw=false
AddVMOption -Dsun.java2d.ddoffscreen=false

#SetJavaVM server
AddVMOption -Xmx1024M
AddVMOption -Xms512M
AddVMOption -Dcompiler.vmargs=-mx1024m

#
# Use this to prevent Windows from paging JDev's memory
# when you minimize it.
# This option should have the same effect as
# the KeepResident plug-in with the advantage
# of being a built-in feature in Sun's JVM 5.
# @see http://java2go.blogspot.com/2007/06/jdeveloper-tips-2-fine-tuning.html
AddVMOption -Dsun.awt.keepWorkingSetOnMinimize=true

Some links to blogentries I looked on today:

How to dynamically call a partnerlink:

"In most basic process designs, partner links are static; they refer to a single external process selected by the developer at design time. This approach is appropriate for highly targeted or constrained systems. However, in larger systems business processes are more complex. They interact with multiple external services and define multiple partner links, and some of these partner links might not be known at design time. As a result, all potential callouts and logic for deciding which partner links to use must be built inside the business process itself—unnecessarily complicating that process. Furthermore, as additional partner links are added, the resulting process grows more and more unwieldy, as any changes to the partner links require modification of the entire business process."
