Running compiled code from gij shouldn't make it any slower - you can put your
classes in a shared library and then use gij to run them. See libjava/NEWS for
details about that.

There is no fixed maximum heap other than hard limits imposed by the collector or
the system. Increasing the minimum heap size can improve performance in some cases
by reducing the number of collections when your app produces a lot of garbage.
Imposing a max heap size is more of a security measure to guard against runaway
apps bringing your system to a crawl.
