However, I think you don't want PROTNONE whan a system has been configured with mode 2: in that case, a user has a reasonable expectation that they can use all of the memory they allocated at VM startup. It makes more sense to allocate all the -Xms size immediately.

-Xms? Or -Xmx? The latter leads to problems if the maximum heap size is relatively large. Currently, -Xmx is reserved, and some software fails to build on vm.overcommit_memory systems due to this.
