Change subject: packaging: Avoid 64 bit JVM options (#852037)
......................................................................


Patch Set 1:

As far as I understand this is price-performance parameter.

Performance - user a lot of memory (each pointer is 64bit).

Price - Use more CPU to access pointer.

What happens is that java stores pointers in 32bit and each access is perform 
by adding some base address to result a 64bit address.

Without this feature java holds 64bit pointers and access these directly.

You have smaller memory footprint, and more CPU work...

Not sure this is actually required.
