Seems a lot of people are in the process of the 1.4 - 1.7 "leap of faith". Lots of things will start raising their heads - this being one. On my testbed I (deliberately) have all the dodgy traps in place, and memlimit zero. Hence I know about the Java_64 issue. For those taking the plunge this is probably a good time to heed Marks advice. However, ... it does exemplify the concerns I have expressed in the past. If the architects of (z/OS) Java_64 were unable to conceive of a means of making their product 64 bit capable without actually requiring storage above the bar, how competent can we expect the users to be. I don't know how to write a "fork bomb" in Java, but I'll bet it ain't hard. A sensible memlimit would be sensible. Shane ...
