Windows, due to limiting an individual process' virtual space to 2 GB.
(Some versions of Windows Server allow configuration of a 3 GB process
space, but that option is not often used.)  This 2 GB is usually
somewhat fragmented due to DLLs being loaded in odd places; the JVM heap
requires contiguous virtual space, so that's why the max heap size on
Windows is around 1.5 GB.

I don't know what virtual space BSD Linux allocates for each process,
nor whether or not there are fragmentation issues with that space.
