Re: heap memory running
24GB is often cited as an upper limit, but YMMV. It also depends if you need memory for MapReduce, if you are using it.

Re: heap memory running
Also, if you assign only 24GB for the heap, the OS will still use some of the remaining memory as cache. And you will need some memory for the hadoop process too.
