It's not the physical ram, it's the jvm heap size limit.
Dig around ant config to see if you can increase that.
I don't have java on a bsd box, this is under gentoo:

nickf at paris ~ $ /home/SUNWappserver/jdk/bin/java -X
    -Xmixed           mixed mode execution (default)
    -Xint             interpreted mode execution only
    -Xbootclasspath:<directories and zip/jar files separated by :>
                      set search path for bootstrap classes and resources
    -Xbootclasspath/a:<directories and zip/jar files separated by :>
                      append to end of bootstrap class path
    -Xbootclasspath/p:<directories and zip/jar files separated by :>
                      prepend in front of bootstrap class path
    -Xnoclassgc       disable class garbage collection
    -Xincgc           enable incremental garbage collection
    -Xloggc:<file>    log GC status to a file with time stamps
    -Xbatch           disable background compilation
    -Xms<size>        set initial Java heap size
    -Xmx<size>        set maximum Java heap size
    -Xss<size>        set java thread stack size
    -Xprof            output cpu profiling data
    -Xrunhprof[:help]|[:<option>=<value>, ...]
                      perform JVMPI heap, cpu, or monitor profiling
    -Xdebug           enable remote debugging
    -Xfuture          enable strictest checks, anticipating future default
    -Xrs              reduce use of OS signals by Java/VM (see
documentation)
    -Xcheck:jni       perform additional checks for JNI functions

The -X options are non-standard and subject to change without notice.

Hope this helps.
