Hi Mark,
With Java 7, are pointers compressed by default.

Other JVM Settings

   - 
   
   -XX:UseCompressedOops
   - 
      
      Compressed oops is supported and enabled by default in Java SE 6u23 
      and later.
      
In Java SE 7, use of compressed oops is the default for 64-bit JVM 
processes when -Xmx isn't specified and for values of -Xmx less than 32 
gigabytes.
