Let 32 program memory space allocated to more than 3GB

On SLES 10 SP4 64-bit systems, 32-bit Java applications installed.
Java applications can be assigned to the memory space for 3GB, is there any way you can make Java memory space allocated to more than 3GB, 4GB and close it?

the top 1 GB is reserved for kernel virtual address space, accessible to the process only when executing in kernel mode.

What did you mean with the “and close it” part of your question?
