Issue APSTUD-4457: Consider using "compress references" and "compressed ordinary object pointers" to reduce Studio's memory footprint
According to this article: http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/java/library/j-codetoheap/index.html pointers in 64-bit java implementations typically increase Java heap usage by 70%. We should consider using the -Xcompressedrefs and -XX:+UseCompressedOops flags, measuring application footprint before and after that setting. If memory does drop considerably, then we should consider using these settings in the Studio products
