I have had issues in the past with Java jobs and h_vmem. When using a large initial heap size, SGE would kill the java process at startup when it is allocating its memory. You may want to lookup the MALLOC_ARENA_MAX environment variable.
We ended up using s_vmem instead, and handling it in our job scripts. 2016-05-09 18:31 GMT+02:00 Alex Chekholko <ch...@stanford.edu>: > IIRC this bug had to do with setting your "consumable" value to "YES" vs > "JOB".
