It's really 64 MB, of which 32.5 MB is available for allocation.  The 8 MB is 
the initial amount available for allocation.  (If this sounds unnecessarily 
complicated, that's only because it is, with emphasis on the unnecessarily.)

Anything in particular?  The Heap Configuration values are those in play at JVM 
startup; the Heap Usage values reflect the state of the heap when the snapshot 
was taken.  If not prohibited, the GC code will adjust the sizes of the eden, 
from/to, and tenured spaces dynamically as conditions change.

For those who haven't already seen it, reference information starts here:
