That sounds familiar.  I seemed to recall having java problems on a
machine that had a non-default datasize setting in /boot/loader.conf.
I was able to work around it by setting some memory size knobs in an
environment variable that java looks at.  I think I did something like
this:
	setenv _JAVA_OPTIONS -Xmx512m
