Default stack size is 512kB for 32bit JVMs on Solaris, 320kB for 32bit JVMs on Linux (and Windows), and 1024kB for 64bit JVMs.
However, stack overflows are usually a good indication of problematic / faulty recursive algorithms. Increasing the stacksize usually only alleviates some symptoms for a bit. Increasing the stacksize is something that only rarely needs to be done, usually when relying on an external library that has problems with stacksize. Always try to troubleshoot code you can alter first.
