Total memory is reserved by jre but not used and can grow as needed up 
to max memory.
What can the user do with such an information ?

Use cases :
A user has several OJ on its machine and updated version 1 with new 
plugins while its shortcut starts the version 2 : we can easily check if 
the running application is the same as the updated one.
I want to access some ressources from a script, I can easily refer to 
these resources with a relative (and bundle resources with the app) 
because I know where te user.dir is.

Yes it works on windows vista (jre 6 and 7, 32 and 64 bits).
It is stranged.  Did you check 3309 ? Which information do you see ?

I think that adding tmp dir as suggested by Stefan is not a bad idea.
Don't know why you want to "hide" them in log file. I think most user
are reluctant to open a log file which is generally difficult to read.

Symantec Endpoint Protection 12 positioned as A LEADER in The Forrester  
Wave(TM): Endpoint Security, Q1 2013 and "remains a good choice" in the
