I think it's mainly our Servlet that uses this up. I think it depends on
how many servlets you load.

-Xms = minimum amount of memory the JVM will use
-Xmx = mazimum amount of memory the JVM will use

From what I understand, it uses memory and processors more efficiently,
more driven for background apps rather than a client JVM driven with
foreground apps in mind.

I use it for everything here now. No harm, just benefits, you just gotta
have the RAM.
