The bottom line is that the limit you are seeing is not actually a JVM imposed limit. So changing to JRockit is not going to help.

Most 32-bit Windows operating systems limit the virtual memory for a user application (such as a JVM) to 2Gb. However, there is a boot switch for Windows Server 2003 that enables applications up to 3Gb ... on hardware that supports PAE : http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/hardware/gg487508.aspx.

Your alternatives are:

  • If you are running Windows Server 2003 - do what the link says.
  • Switch to 32 bit Linux or 32 bit Solaris. Both allow more than 2Gb for user applications.
  • Switch to a 64 bit operating system.

I don't know why a simple Google search didn't suffice, but this is clearly available on OTN.

As far as allocation of memory for the JVM is concerned, it is unlikely that you will be able to get any amount more than 2GB. See this related question and the most voted answer.
