Unrecognized VM option 'PermSize=32M'

Java 8 and 11 issue the following message if the switch -XX:PermSize is specified.
warning: Ignoring option PermSize; support was removed in 8.0

Java 17 then definitively says.
Unrecognized VM option 'PermSize=32'

So remove PermSitze, then it also works with Java 17.
