Enable Java Garbage Collection (GC) logs to diagnose performance issues

If the ThoughtWorks Studios Support Team suggests enabling GC logs, please perform the following steps:

In your mingle.configDir, open the file mingle.properties in your preferred text editor.

Add the following lines:

-Xloggc:gclog.log
-XX:+PrintGCDetails
-XX:+PrintGCTimeStamps

For this to take effect, you must restart your Mingle instance.  

Please note: When you restart it will overwrite any existing gclog.log files.  Therefore if you are experiencing bad performance, you should capture the log file during the bad performance, BEFORE restarting Mingle.  Once you have copied the logs to send to the support team, you can then safely restart which will clear out the gclog.
