I've discovered that java8 requires a minumum of 228k for Xss in order for the jvm to start. Perhaps openjdk config should be adjusted to add that minimum to enable more success with memory scaling.
memory_calculator:
memory_sizes:
stack: 228k..
To verify minumum simply try to start java with a smaller stack size:
java -version
openjdk version "1.8.0_45-internal"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_45-internal-b14)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.45-b02, mixed mode)
java -Xss128k
The stack size specified is too small, Specify at least 228k
Error: Could not create the Java Virtual Machine.
Error: A fatal exception has occurred. Program will exit.
