But that's the *maximum* heap size; why does JDK 2.0 consume, in one particular
case, 50 megs of RAM when JDK 1.1 consumed 15 megs, just because the *maximum*
heap size is higher? Does the JDK just ignore freeing memory as long as it's
under the max limit?

The problem is that you can't decrease the max limit either, I take it, since
that would make it impossible to run apps that really do requre quite a bit of
memory.

Oh and btw;  I'd like to report that JDK 1.2 seems to work
fine on Debian 2.0, except for a few probs (thought I'd mention it considering
one's half expecting it to not run at all, given the README :).
