Unless I am retarded, which I might be, I think the the amount of memory
taken up by a VM is specified in the command used to start the java VM
something like -Xs512M -Xi512M come to mind, which would set the minimum
and maximum memory taken up at 512 Megs, so the amount of memory used by
the VM is configurable,  what is not however is how the garbage
collector utilizes that memory.  I cannot think of a single command on
any OS for any JM that would tell you how much of the heap was utilized.


Just my blathering
