We noticed the same thing with ServletExec-AS on Windows 2003 32-bit under IIS 6. When we tried to increase the max size beyond that, it wouldn't even start up properly.

They said that if you do Tomcat will not start. Has anyone ever heard of this.

Anything larger and you will have problems even starting the service or it may crash while stopping tomcat.
