What is the default maximum heap size for Sun's JVM from J2SE 6 (i.e. equivalent to setting -Xmx)?

Looks like for J2SE 5 with a server-class machine, it's

Smaller of 1/4th of the physical memory or 1GB.

Bonus question: Looks like for IBM's JVM you can ask it

java -verbose:sizes -version

Can you similarly ask Sun's JVM?
