By reverse engineering GEF I get problems without increasing memory. One of the only reasons I'm aware of for the user getting corruptions is due to memory being to low so this is important to tackle. > It is suggested that we need '-Xmx512m'. > - http://argouml.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=5078#desc4 > - http://argouml.tigris.org/faqs/users.html#xmx > > http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/technotes/tools/windows/java.html, implies > that 'Xmx512m' sets the maximum size of the memory allocation pool to 512MB. That works for me on GEF though it is pretty arbitrary though as you say. We need some figure that we can reasonably expect a user system to be able to spare and it is certainly within that. I haven't heard any reports of anyone struggling with memory with that setting but we do have performance problems with larger projects. > If necessary, I will update the .bat, .sh, and windows launcher accordingly, > none of which have this argument at present. The user should be able to override whichever value we choose. They can edit the bacth file themselves or we can allow that batch file to take some command line argument. Is there any way for the launcher exe to take some argument to override our default? > P.S.
