    Default Stackoverflow Recursive quicksort

    For my quicksort for fun I wrote, when I time it, it has no problem sorting 1000 items in order or random data of size 1000, 10K, 100K, 1M, but when it comes to applying it to 10K descending order of data, I get a stack overflow? I'm using Windows 7 64-bit core i5 Sandy bridge. I tried to set memory via > java -Xmx2g for example but it's limited and also this is for heap size to increase, not stack size which is what the quick sort I wrote is using, so should I use JVM 64-bit?

    EDIT: I just found out you can increase stack size, I'll try this first
