I don't know anything about Java, but what about memory fragmentation, could that be an issue?

It could, but how would I be able to tell? Or to solve it?

how much swap space do you have?
I think I've read somewhere that you might need some amount of swap space available when using large amounts of heap...

This apparently is a problem on SunOS

Read post #2 here
Java Virtual Machine (JVM) - Error -unable to create JVM,Could not reserve enough space for object heap

It suggests further reading to solve the problem.

Turns out the amount of available swap space was the issue. The message is that the system is unable to reserve enough swap space.
