How big is Java? Bigger than you can possibly imagine. Why is it running
during igt? CI only know.

I have no idea, avail_ram_mb() is meant to be able to say how much
memory we could use, but then Java keeps on stealing more. We could
mlock it I guess, but the end result is the same, Java is forced into
swap and we risk page allocation failures.
