OpenJDK on FreeBSD: "Given reserved space must have been reserved already" - installation

Question

I'm trying to get Artifactory up and running on a FreeBSD machine. I installed /usr/ports/devel/artifactory, seemingly without problem, and then ran "/usr/local/etc/rc.d/artifactory start". It said Artifactory was starting, and didn't give any obvious signs of error, but when the script ended, Artifactory was not running. I found that every time I do this, the following is appended to /usr/local/artifactory/logs/boot.log:
# A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime Environment:
#
# Internal Error (g1PageBasedVirtualSpace.cpp:54), pid=87801, tid=100176
# guarantee(rs.is_reserved()) failed: Given reserved space must have been reserved already.
Googling that "Given reserved space must have been reserved already" reveals no information that is particularly useful to me. It seems to be a message from within the OpenJDK.
The log file also mentions that another file was created with more detailed error information. That file has a stack trace and various other info:

All packages are up to date and compiled from source. All Java-related stuff is newly installed (along with Artifactory) and with unchanged, default configuration.
Any ideas? Thanks.

Answer 1

This seems to be an issue with memory allocation.
The default heap size defined in the Artifactory startup script is 2g, which is more than the maximal heap size which can be allocated by the JVM on a 32bit FreeBSD machine.
The solution in this case would be deacreasing the maximum heap size to ~1.5g.
