This is probably worth putting in the documentation somewhere.
This page -
http://docs.geoserver.org/stable/en/user/installation/windows/binary.html#setting-environment-variables
and -
http://docs.geoserver.org/stable/en/user/production/java.html#production-java
Both say something to the effect of: "For best performance, use Oracle JRE
6 (also known as JRE 1.6) or newer."
Which implies Java 7 is fine.
For reference - Java 8 is due out later this year -
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_8#Java_SE_8 - so its probably worth
specifying exactly which major version of Java GeoServer best supports.
