Probably should be 1024 now for everybody, but as I recall, that could create problems for some windows machines that might not have that big a hole available in the virtual memory.

export NO_DOCS=true

should skip most javadoc runs. Not sure many developers really need to constantly run javadoc, not the speediest animal on the planet. :^(

Back in November there was a change to ...\jdk\make\docs\Makefile to fix an out of memory problem by raising the memory size for a 32 bit build (line 74) from 512 to 612. That didn't work on my machine: 64 bit Windows 7 with 8 mb. I raised it up to 1024 to bypass the problem. I don't know if that's too much but it worked.
