dev-java/icedtea: Patch CACAO for a dynamic maximum heap
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
It has been discovered that CACAO has been giving us memory problems
because it had a fixed default heap size of only 128MB, whereas
HotSpot uses a quarter of the physical RAM. I have patched CACAO to do
the same. See IcedTea bugs gentoo#2611 and gentoo#2612.
