We use the -Xmx1024m option, which allows us to generate a PDF of 1000 pages, with table of contents and bookmarks, page of <numpages>, and a lot of other internal links. It takes like 20min on a Linux server to generate this PDF with FOP 0.92 (we generate an internal xml file, which is converted with a self-written xsl to fo, so this conversion is included in the time). Without the option, we've got the same memory problem. With FOP 0.20.5, we never succeeded to generate this kind of PDF, with or without the -Xmx option.

Hi Rick, You probably omitted the 'm' from '-xmx' option. -xmx is the usual way to increase max memory for JVM. You can use -xms in conjunction to define initial memory. See [1] the whole java options.
