You could just have it enabled on the IBM JVM and not enabled in the Sun JVM (50% benifith with 1% work). If on Sun the GC log is printed to the standard error, you could re-direct it (linux assumed) to Apache's rotatelogs utility. http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/programs/rotatelogs.html Just an idea. Good luck on that. Ted, I believe all log files, of all types should be roll able.

I'm painfully aware that the jvm's have different options. I support both Sun's and IBM's jvm but was hoping to find something similar for the Sun jvm. I guess I'll have to setup a script to rotate the log, what a pain. same results after way more than a 60 second search on google. I’m painfully aware that the jvm’s have different options.

The syntax for these things is completely different from one JVM to the other. It could be that there's no such thing for Sun's JVM... No idea then. Let me know if you find anything.

Would you happen to know if there is a similar option for Sun's JVM? Nice entry on GC log rotation. Would you happen to know if there is a similar option for Sun’s JVM?
