May be it needs more memory than you allowed it to have. Read what -Xmx option does.
I rebooted and it worked fine, as it has worked for years. Possibly after some hours it will fail to start - or many not, I rebooted to a previous kernel.

This is absurd,
Not everything you do not know or understand is absurd.
Then explain it to me, why after the last update I suddenly have those problems.
Insufficient data. It seems your "gigacontrol" needs more heapspace than it was given, that's all anyone can explain.
Nononono. It has been working for years. Now it fails.
That is still all the explanation available based on the data you have provided.
And I'm expanding the info. It is something different, the java process is running now just fine after a reboot. For some reason Linux is out of resources, not for java, but for everything. Many processes fail to start, only that java prints the error and others do not. For example, the other day I got: cer@Telcontar:~> less /var/log/warn /usr/bin/lessopen.sh: fork: retry: Resource temporarily unavailable /usr/bin/lessopen.sh: fork: retry: Resource temporarily unavailable cer@Telcontar:~>
Firefox fails to open tabs, tabs crash. gkrelm crashes. Then I get messages about not being able to open threads, temporarily no resources. Sometimes in the shell, or with java. java simply is more sensitive to the problem. I get coredumps of everything. Finally, I have to reboot (with crashes) and everything works. I hibernate for the night, and next morning after restore and a while, problems start again.
I have a 15.1 desktop in the office next door, maybe I'll go patch that and see if it misbehaves the same way.
Please see the thread "Everything is coredumping". You can see there debug output with this error: #1 0x00007efbf61b6bec in g_log_default_handler (log_domain=log_domain@entry=0x7efbf61f8b8e "GLib", log_level=log_level@entry=6, message=message@entry=0x565557843a60 "creating thread 'gmain': Error creating thread: Resource temporarily unavailable", unused_data=unused_data@entry=0x0) at gmessages.c:305 -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E.
