How to debug a native Java crash on Linux?

Question

I\'ve seen this question and this article on how to debug a native Java crash. The article is with respect to Windows. What are the equivalent debugging aids on Linux?

Answer 1

Do you really need -Xmx2000000k? Looks like you are only using about 84MB of that.

My experience is that you really can't reliably go above about 1700MB heap in a 32 bit process space anyway. So, that setting may be causing this problem.
