It seems that the server and client options rely on: JAVA_HOME\jre\bin\server and JAVA_HOME\jre\bin\client
at least on Win/NT and these directories contain a jvm.dll file (as well as Xusage.txt) So perhaps jmeter.bat could detect jvm.dll and add the -server option accordingly ... This probably only works with Sun's JVM, but there should be no harm in adding -server if the dll was found in the server directory, or not?
