TieredCompilation is disabled in this release - running Leiningen in Counterclockwise

Question

I'm running Leiningen in Counterclockwise in Eclipse (Windows, if it's relevant).

The thing is, when I run Leiningen from the command prompt, it runs just fine. However when I run it inside Eclipse, although it runs fine it haunts me with the following warning:

Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM warning: TieredCompilation is disabled in this release.

The only relevant thing I found on the Internet is this. However the solution doesn't work for me as I don't have this line in lein.bat file. I've tried fiddling with Java options in lein.bat to enable TieredCompilation explicitly with no avail. I'm trying to understand - what's different when Eclipse runs lein, compared to when I run it from the prompt, how does it run it? How do I hide this message?

EDIT: this warning seems to appear only in 32-bit JVM; for anyone having the same problem, using 64-bit JVM solves it. For anyone that as to use 32-bit JVM for whatever reason, I'm still looking for a good solution.

Answer 1

(converted from comment as I have to add additional info)

CCW uses its own version of Leiningen - for example, when I execute lein version from inside CCW I get 2.5.1, but if I drop to the command line and execute the same command I get 2.7.1. In my install (Neon + CCW - couldn't make the standalone CCW install work) there's a leiningen-standalone.jar in C:\eclipse\plugins\ccw.core_0.35.1.STABLE001. There may be a way to get Counterclockwise to use a separate version of Leiningen - perhaps more knowledgeable users will chime in with how to do this.

Also note that in the Windows install of Leiningen the LEIN_JVM_OPTS environment variable isn't defined at all in lein.bat, although it is used when invoking Java. Thus it seems you have two options:

1. Less-preferred option: edit lein.bat and add the definition of LEIN_JVM_OPTS, probably somewhere near the beginning of the file. This has the disadvantage that when you upgrade Leiningen you'll lose your definition of LEIN_JVM_OPTS and have to find this message again.

2. More-preferred option: since this is Windows you can go into Control Panel, type "environ" in the search box, then click on on the "Edit environment variables for your account" link which comes up under System (or click on "Edit the system environment variables" if you like). Create a new entry for LEIN_JVM_OPTS, specifying something like

   -XX:-TieredCompilation
   

and you should be good to go. While I don't know for certain if this environment variable is used by the standalone .jar version of Leiningen I'd certainly hope and expect it would be.

Best of luck.
