Need to be able to start our non-trivial server side Java Language applications
with a huge heap allocation. For example, this EJB App needs 48Gb heap size:

1. java -mx40000m weblogic.Server
2. src code: n.a.
3. err msg: -mx40000m: invalid parameter
4. trace: n.a.
5. arch: SUNW,Ultra-Enterprise-10000 64CPUs @333MHz 48Gb RAM; 1 domain (SUN Benchmark Center Geneva)

it looks like the max heap size of a JVM is limited to 2Gb;
therefore it is not possible to give a 40Gb ejb cache to ejb
container to hold sth close to 1 billion objects
