I've just dug through the 1.5 code and found that the use of 1/4 of the total physical memory is dependant on several other factors, such as the category of machine and whether or not parallel GC is enabled. If running on a "server class machine", then parallel GC is enabled if not explicitly disabled or implicitly disabled by specifying other options such as -Xrun. A "server class machine" is currently defined to be one with at least two physical 64-bit CPUs (or 32-bit CPUs with -server set) and 2 GB of memory. If those conditions (along with some other esoteric ones) are not met, the defaults are as they were in 1.4. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
