The default initial heap size in OpenJDK9 is 8m (-Xms8m), and I'd like to

It seams that most/all java binaries are based on the same main.c program
that launches a specific binary such as javac by passing it parameters
through some sort of "Launcher" that specifes the command line options.
Unfortunately I don't understand how this is specified when javac is
linked. -wade
javac compilations are mainly controlled through
- make/common/SetupJavaCompilers.gmk
but also see:
- make/common/JavaCompilation.gmk
- make/CompileJavaModules.gmk
You can either adjust the flags you pass into the calls (from various
makefiles) defined in SetupJavaCompilers or you can edit the FLAGS
definitions in there directly e.g. to add -J-Xms16m
Also look at the definition for JAVA_TOOL_FLAGS_SMALL.
PS. The above are for new JDK 10 repo layout. For 9 it is probably in
jdk/make.
