AFAIK the default stack size of the JVM on 64bit linux is 2M. This is very 
large, and most apps don't need this much, unless they use deeply recursive 
algorithms. Setting Xss to a lower value reduces memory footprint of a single 
thread, and thus allows for more threads and/or larger heap with same amount 
of physical memory.
