When you start the Tomcat app, you tell it how much memory to allocate
to the JVM. I don't remember where, probably in catalina.sh.

Hello Lance,
form the command line run:

 export JAVA_OPTS='-d64 -Xms128m -Xmx5g'

eventually changing values of Xms and Xmx.
Hope this helps.

You will need to set up the allocation of RAM for Java, via the the -Xmx
and -Xms variables. If you are using something like Tomcat, that would
be done in the Tomcat configuration file. E.g., this option can be added
inside /etc/init.d/tomcat6 on new Debian/Ubuntu systems.

You will also need to switch to a 64 bits JVM
You might have to add the `-d64` flag as well as the `-Xms` and `-Xmx`

I've actually had no luck googling what's up with the -d64.  Can you 
point me to any documentation on what effect it has, and on particular 
on what the boundary -Xmx size is that requires -d64?
