Comment 8 for bug 718635

I'm hitting this too, on a 12.04 with an OpenJDK v7 64-bit crash... attaching my _usr_lib_jvm_java-7-openjdk-amd64_jre_bin_java.1000.crash if that is of any use to you guys? If I do /usr/share/apport/apport-gtk _usr_lib_jvm_java-7-openjdk-amd64_jre_bin_java.1000.crash it shows that "Sorry, the program "java" closed unexpectedly. Your computer does not have enough free memory to automatically analyze the problem and send a report to the developers." which others also reported regularly seeing (I've just duplicated two other bugs to this one).

Is any of the above a suggested workaround or solution? Based on latest comment, ignore the maxsize in /etc/default/apport (on 12.04 certainly)... what should one put in /etc/security/limits.conf ?!
