Really? Ok, now I had to go run some experiments. On my windows XP machine, with 2 GB of RAM, the max I can launch at is -Xmx1500M On a 32 bit Fedora Core 3 install with 3 GB of physical RAM, I can get up to -Xmx3750M - (today - strange thing is I _know_ I couldn't get this high previously - I don't know what system setting I have changed to let me go higher...) So, where can I find the documentation that explains how the OS caps these numbers? Is there a way to raise the cap on windows?
