where options include:
    -cp -classpath <directories and zip/jar files separated by :>
              set search path for application classes and resources
    -D<name>=<value>
              set a system property
    -verbose[:class|gc|jni]
              enable verbose output

What about export JAVA_OPTS="-Xms512M -Xmx1024M" (unix) or set JAVA_OPTS=-Xms512M -Xmx1024M (windows)?

Well, you have to execute SOME java program, not just the JVM. The options itself are fine. Try java -Xms512M -Xmx1024M -cp somejar.jar mystuff.Main or something.
