[Andrew Dinn]

Hmm, this patch may need to be reconsidered :-(

I just tried running jtreg with this patch included and it fails to
compile the test code. That's because jtreg passes argument -Xms8m to
javac. This causes eden_size to be computed as zero leading to an assert.

It is possible to override this by passing EXTRA_JTREG_ARGS="-Xms16m" to
the "make test" command. That seems rather unsatisfactory though.

I wonder if anything else important -- other than jtreg -- is relying on
being able to run with a heap size of 8Mb?

Any opinions?

regards,
