You will also note that it's almost impossible to resize Java windows sometimes. I suspect that it has to do with the window border size. Here's my workaround for the latter issue -- use tabs. Size up another app window the size you want your Java app window ... drag the tab for your Java app over to that (use your 3rd mouse button) ... and it will inherit the size of the app you drag it to.
