RFR(XS): 8047878 - [TESTBUG] runtime/memory/ReadFromNoaccessArea.java and runtime/memory/ReserveMemory.java time out on Solaris

[Christian Tornqvist]

Hi,

 

This is a fix for an issue where these tests times out. The time out is due
to the child process crashing (as it should), but core dumping is taking a
lot of time. This can be seen on machines with a lot of memory. The fix is
to set the heap size of the child process to a small amount in order to
reduce the size of the core file.
