No, you can have up to around 2^48 bytes, if you have a big enough swap file. The amount of real memory has no bearing on the maximum size of the Java heap. (It does have a bearing on performance, since if you use more aggregate virtual space than real memory, paging ensues.) - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
