Yes. It is looking for the free command.
It uses free to find the RAM memory size so it can set the java -Xmx memory
setting to an appropriate value based on your machine (javac, jar etc.)
I assume you need to install the cygwin package that includes this command,
but I'm not sure what package that is.
I normally just install all of cygwin.
