Hi Yiguang

Would you be able to redo a clean install with
<extraJvmArgs>-Xmx1024M -XstartOnFirstThread
-Dconnection.string="${db.connection.string}"
-Ddb.driver=${db.driver}</extraJvmArgs>

i.e. withouot the -XstartOnFirstThread, but with the extra memory setting.
This option doesn't work on Windows, so I'm wondering if all you required
was the memory max.
Cheers,
Chris
