I would say that this company would be using an enterprise edition, although I can't be certain. They sure are big enough...
I also don't deny the fact that there are dumbasses that will develop horrible, resource-sucking, wasteful apps (hell, I've done it too) on the same box as me, but we've been dealing with this same problem since April. I'm actually in the process of moving this site to a new host to see if I can prove that it indeed is their configuration that's making it spit out JRun errors every couple hours or so. It's just frustrating to have to do all this. The real answer is to get ourselves a dedicated box, then at least I know when it's throwing errors, I can attribute it to something I'm doing, and not some arbitrary setup.
