Andri, I'm guessing that you are using a 32-bit version of (SuSE) Linux Enterprise 9. You need to use the 64-bit version to get heap sizes greater than 2GB (actually it ends up being closer to th 1800m as you have experience). An of course your hardware needs to support 64-bit (e.g. with AMD64 chips such as Opterons or Intels EMT64 clones).
Now of course, switching to 64-bit OS and hardware may not be an option. Something that sometimes works for others is to run two or more instances of Tomcat - with each getting the 1800M of heap. Of course there must be real memory/RAM to support this, but some 32-bit machines can support 4GB of RAM (maybe more, I'm not sure) - the 2GB (or slightly less) limit is for a single process, such as the JVM that Tomcat runs in. With the multiple Tomcat's running, of course you need some way to load balance requests across the two instances - you can search the archives of this list for many, many discussions on how to do this.
