procfs on /proc type procfs (local)

unlimited

but firefox-linux still fails
(without the line: Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM warning.....):

Error occurred during initialization of VM
Could not reserve enough space for object heap
INTERNAL ERROR on Browser End: Could not read ack from child process
System error?:: Resource temporarily unavailable

'man mount' doesn't show 'linux' as option for '-o'. Is that OK?
