That's 64 MB for the *Java heap*, not the entire process. The process space includes lots of other things besides the Java heap, such as room for code, the C heap, other JVM structures, file maps, various bits of OS- and library-managed structures, etc. > but top indicates the residant size is twice that and > the virtual image size is four times that. Resident should always be <= virtual (unless your OS is very strange), and virtual will always be > Java heap. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
