I don't *think* it is possible to say for sure what the number is. Going from memory, the stack area of the memory used by the JVM has an upper bound in bytes controlled by -Xss, and this area is shared among all threads, and different stack frames may take up a different amount of memory. > > ~~ Robert. > > Tobias Ivarsson wrote: >> >> >> On Sun, Apr 12, 2009 at 4:28 PM, Robert Fischer >> <robert.fisc...@smokejumperit.com >> <mailto:robert.fisc...@smokejumperit.com>> wrote: >> >> >> Coming off of the TCO conversation -- what's the easiest way to >> track information about stack depth >> on the JVM?
