Just to follow up on Paul's observation that the test runs with -Xmx8g.
I assume this isn't going to work on 32-bit systems, also I'm sure it
will cause problems in other environments too, esp. when running the
tests concurrently with a pool of VMs running the tests. Paul's
suggestion to have the test just pass if there is insufficient heap is
one choice, another might be to test on a smaller range when there isn't
enough memory. Another potential approach is to have it launch a new VM
with -Xmx8g once you establish that the VM is 64-bit and that there is
sufficient memory available.
