Notes / Tuning Information 
JVM Version used:
Java (TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition Version 1.4.0
JVM arguments used:
-Xms512m -Xmx512m -Dsun.net.inetaddr.ttl=0

Benchmark Modifications
Schema Modifications: 
  Tablespace sizes were increased to support the Injection rate
  Scripts to create the DB are included in the FDA
Load Program Modifications: 
  The load program was not modified
Reference Bean Modifications: 
  No changes were made to the reference beans.

Benchmark Configuration Information
Persistence Mode Used: 
  CMP mode was used for all beans
Isolation Requirement Info: 
  Beans with a READ_COMMITTED requirement were deployed using
  locking-mode="optimistic" in their deployment descriptor
  
  All other beans were deployed using
  locking-mode="pessimistic" in their deployment descriptor
  
  A pessimistic locking mode means that all selects (including during finders) are issued with a FOR UPDATE clause
Durability Requirement Info: 
  RAID1 disk mirroring was used to ensure durability
  for the database logs
Storage Requirement Info: 
  A 45 minute run at an injection rate of 110 increased storage by 2.85GB
  Given a linear scaling extrapolating for an 8-Hour run we get 30.5GB
  The system is configured with 90GB which is sufficient for 8Hr run.
Argument Passing Semantics: 
  Oracle 9iAS application server uses pass -by-value
  as required by the EJB specification

Other Benchmark Information 
  This submission used the xerces.jar from the SPECjAppServer2001 Kit.
  The xerces.jar file was copied to the lib directory of the appserver
  No hardware or software was used to alter basic network routing.
  
  Requests were sent to different appservers utilizing DNS round-robin
  with one of the mid-tier nodes acting as the DNS server
  DNS round-robin was implemented by using the linux supplied BIND domain-name server
  The driver used the following jndi.properties
  java.naming.factory.initial=com.evermind.server.rmi.RMIInitialContextFactory
  java.naming.provider.url=ormi://main.spec.bogus:23791/SPECjAppServer
  java.naming.security.principal=admin
  java.naming.security.credentials=welcome
  dedicated.rmicontext=true

General Notes 
No errors were reported during the final or reproducability run
