[Building Sakai] Sakai 2.7 on 32-bit Windows

[Raad Al-Rawi]

Thanks Matthew.

I tried various combinations on Friday, and after reading your email I 
had another go and... Lo! I have hit on the right ones for now. Running 
tomcat as a service I have a successful start with:

Initial pool: 512m
Maximum pool: 1024m

and appending the additional Sakai settings to the Java options, plus:

-XX:MaxPermSize=384m


So thanks again!
