Hi Martin,

Thank you for taking a look into this feature. IcedTea-Web is currently
designed on a single JVM architecture which makes features like jvm_argument
tag support very complicated to implement without making some serious changes
to the design itself. This is something we are looking to overcome in the
future.

However, at this moment, there is currently a patch pending in review [1] which
will allow you to set JVM options for plugins through itw-settings. Using this
patch, you'll be able to set single and multiple JVM options for all of your
plugin applets through the GUI panel. The settings are written to the
deployment property file, so if you prefer to avoid the graphical user
interface, you can easily set the options using the key
(deployment.plugin.jvm.arguments) to deployment file located in
~/.icedtea/deployment.properties.

Example:
    deployment.plugin.jvm.arguments=-verbose

I look forward to get this feature implemented to HEAD as soon as I can. Thanks
for the patience.
