Java memory usage will ebb and flow depending on activity. I suspect that at 12:28 there was sufficient activity on your system to require more than 512Mb RAM. By the time you checked later, that memory usage had shrunk back to 360Mb. This is not unusual. Since your machine has virtual memory, you can safely push the JVM max up quite a bit and heavy load will then just slow the system down rather than run it up against the memory limit. I think the maximum allowable is around 3600Mb (it's a certain amount under 4Gb but I can't quite remember what the threshold is). In order to scale your system, you could look at CFMX for J2EE which allows multiple instances and therefore multiple JVMs to service traffic on your website.
