Java VM crashed with insufficient memory "Native memory allocation (malloc) failed to allocate XXXX bytes for PSOldGen::expand_to_reserved"

Issue

• JVM crashed where hs_err_pid<PID>.log contained the following:

#
# There is insufficient memory for the Java Runtime Environment to continue.
# Native memory allocation (malloc) failed to allocate 4194304 bytes for PSOldGen::expand_to_reserved
# Possible causes:
#   - not enough swap space left, or
#   - kernel parameter MAXDSIZ is very small.
# Possible reasons:
#   The system is out of physical RAM or swap space
#   In 32 bit mode, the process size limit was hit
# Possible solutions:
#   Reduce memory load on the system
#   Increase physical memory or swap space
#   Check if swap backing store is full
#   Use 64 bit Java on a 64 bit OS
#   Decrease Java heap size (-Xmx/-Xms)
#   Decrease number of Java threads
#   Decrease Java thread stack sizes (-Xss)
#   Set larger code cache with -XX:ReservedCodeCacheSize=
# This output file may be truncated or incomplete.
#
#  Out of Memory Error (psOldGen.cpp:313), pid=1117, tid=132
#
# JRE version: 6.0
# Java VM: Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (20.65-b04-jre1.6.0.21-rc1 mixed mode hp-ux-ia64 )
