The test verifies that a certain memory limit with swappiness set to 0 returns the memory limit (without swap). On some systems with many cores the memory limit might be too small for the number of threads the JVM creates with the set limit. I propose to make the number of cores the test is allowed to used to a fixed value: 4 over the number of cores available on the system, which makes the test passing system dependent.

@shipilev PTAL. Thanks!
