The problem is that Java's actual memory usage (i.e. the memory requested from the OS) is largely outside the control of the application. The same goes for C#/.Net as well. Just try out SharpReader.
As an aside, I'm currently busy rewriting Sunrise in C++. The commercial version will use much less memory, run faster, and won't require Java. (Before you ask: no, it won't support Plucker.)
