JDK-7197666 - java -d64 -version core dumps in a box with lots of memory
Description
I'm not sure that the failure happens due to memory exhaustion. Many JCK tests failed with:

# There is insufficient memory for the Java Runtime Environment to continue.
# Native memory allocation (malloc) failed to allocate 1048576 bytes for AllocateHeap
# Possible reasons:
#   The system is out of physical RAM or swap space
#   In 32 bit mode, the process size limit was hit
# Possible solutions:
#   Reduce memory load on the system
#   Increase physical memory or swap space
#   Check if swap backing store is full
#   Use 64 bit Java on a 64 bit OS
#   Decrease Java heap size (-Xmx/-Xms)
#   Decrease number of Java threads
#   Decrease Java thread stack sizes (-Xss)
#   Set larger code cache with -XX:ReservedCodeCacheSize=
# This output file may be truncated or incomplete.
#
#  Out of Memory Error (.../hotspot/src/share/vm/memory/allocation.inline.hpp:59), pid=5523, tid=2

# JRE version:  (7.0)
# Java VM: Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (24.0-b25-fastdebug compiled mode solaris-amd64 compressed oops)

Comments
This is most likely just a problem because too many tests are run concurrently on the same machine. The hs_err file reports: Memory: 4k page, physical 12571012k(2727408k free) So, out of 12 GB only 2GB are free. The current process will not need that much memory so, there must be many other processes running at the same time.
