-d32

-d64

Specifies whether the program is to be run in a 32-bit or 64-bit environment if available.

Currently only the Java HotSpot Server VM supports 64-bit operation, and the "-server" option is implicit with the use of -d64. This is subject to change in a future release.

If neither -d32 nor -d64 is specified, the default is to run in a 32-bit environment, except for 64-bit only systems. This is subject to change in a future release.

(Looks like the same in 6.0 as well.)
