I think noel is using it in embedded mode: his config suggests that (and that is the advantage of derby over any other database to james - it's embedded - doesnt require any external program running). And in that mode, it shares memory with everything else in the JVM. Fail safe/recovery functions are great... but cant do anything if they cant allocate any memory because somthing else in the JVM is hogging it all!
