[OSM-dev] Osmosis: 20% performance increase with java -server

[Noel Grandin]

The -server flag changes the internal VM parameters so that it
- favours execution speed over startup time, so the JIT runs more
aggressively
- favours execution speed over memory use, so it will probably use a
little more RAM
