If you're willing to experiment a little, one thing that might be worth trying is to switch to different GC algorithms to see if that helps stability:

-XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC -XX:+UseParNewGC -XX:+UseParallelGC -XX:+UseParallelOldGC -XX:+UseSerialGC -XX:+UnlockExperimentalVMOptions -XX:+UseG1GC (we've found this to be unstable on both Windows and Solaris)

There's a tonne of other VM options that might make a difference too though the GC options listed above are a good starting point.

Ok, I'll try those options (they need to be passed to the java VM right?) and keep you posted :-)
