openjdk,icedtea - Xmx option mandatory

[Roberto Mannai]

linux:~ # free -m
            total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:           503        495          7          0         63        183
-/+ buffers/cache:        248        254
Swap:          127          0        127

The SWAP is 127 mb. Now, in general should be the -Xms option the
setting for the initial size.

The point is that the java-1.6.0-sun works out of the box, the openjdk
crashes in the same hardware.
