Depends at what level you want to control it.

On some UNIX variants you can use kernel parameters or other mechanisms 
to force a process to core dump if various memory areas (e.g. data 
segment) exceeds a certain size.  This can stop the process from growing 
to a point where paging is occurring.

If a JVM is growing mysteriously, if there is an equivalent of Solaris 
pmap on your OS, it may be worth understanding which area of memory is 
growing as you might be able to stop it.... (e.g. is it because of too 
many threads, or a growing native heap etc.)

But no command line parameter I'm afraid....
