[Pljava-dev] pljava crash in jre

test platform is: centos6 minimal install, with or without the
almost-6.1 'cr' files. 64bit. jdk6u29, pgsql 9.0.5 or 9.0.6...
postgresql-9.0 installed from depesz' yum.postgresql.org repository.
pljava binaries built exactly how I detailed here a week back, running
in /usr/share/pljava/ .

so I've been fighting this hard crash as soon as I ran any pljava on our
dev servers. crashes as soon as you run any pljava, including the
crash-n-burn test: select sysprop( 'java.home' ); nothing I tried
would work...

crash leaves this lengthy debug file in the /var/lib/pgsql/9.0/data
directory
http://freescruz.com/hs_err_pid1704.log

it was crashing like this both on a 'real' 12 core 48gb server, and on a
4-core 6gb VMware ESXi instance, with the same basic configuration. I
tried all sorts of variations, still hard crashes as soon as you run any
pljava, even sysprop

I built a small VM at home, and installed the same versions of
everything... and it worked. :-O

narrowed it down. 1 or 4 CPU cores doesn't matter. our 'large' .conf
file crashes, and a default small file works. {!!!},

I've narrowed it down to...

shared_buffers=2048MB crashes,
shared_buffers=1024MB works.
