The property it may be referring to is *derby.language.maxMemoryPerTable*. The default value is 1024 KB. Current default value is too small, so it would be a good tip for developers to know and tune this property. It would be great if Derby can configure this property value based on factors like max heap size, size of data cache and/or other parameters. If you are opening a documentation bug for other issue you found, may be you can include this omission as well. Satheesh
