Hello,

I believe Wade is rather asking about the resulting javac binary that the build produces. If that's the case, you need to edit jdk/make/launcher/Launcher-jdk.compiler.gmk and add your desired flags to the JAVA_ARGS argument to SetupBuildLauncher for javac. Example:

$(eval $(call SetupBuildLauncher, javac, \
   MAIN_CLASS := com.sun.tools.javac.Main, \
   JAVA_ARGS := --add-modules ALL-DEFAULT -Xms512m, \
   CFLAGS := -DEXPAND_CLASSPATH_WILDCARDS, \
))

(I have not tested this, but it should work)

The default initial heap size in OpenJDK9 is 8m (-Xms8m), and I'd like to increase it, but I can't find how this is specified in the build process. It seams that most/all java binaries are based on the same main.c program

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.

HTH
