Once again the crash happens when the permanent generation in the heap 
is almost full. It seems this happens to many people with jdk15 on amd64 
and usually increasing the heap size does not help much (since the 
permanent generation gets just a fraction of this). See if you can find 
a useful combination of the flags discussed here:
