Well, now it's now really interesting.
I made a typo in my previous post.
Basically I have a 4GIG machine.
But somehow I lost 1GIG and now have only 3. I am getting serviced =20
this Friday so will find out.

That aside, I have 16GIG of SWAPSPACE, and 3GIG of actual RAM.

I am still unable to allocate more than -Xmx700M

FreeBSD or JAVA is not tapping into my swapspace? How do I check this =20=

out?
