allocation


Allocate the amount of JVM specified under the "Final JVM Allocation" column  column based on where your Zephyr instance falls in the usage chart below. Your allocation should be based on whichever column your instance hits the highest of and not the average.

  • For exampleExample: You have 2 projects which has a 4GB allocation, 150 users which has a 8GB allocation, and 2,000,000 test cases and executions which has a 16GB allocation. Your allocation for Zephyr should be 16GB since the because 2,000,000 test cases/executions hits the highest.
