Oops. Should have left the fork="yes" attribute. Otherwise the memory stuff
is ignored. -DD
Setting the memory params of the VM running ANT also works of course, as
Diane suggested. Do java -X at the prompt.
$ java -X
...
-Xms<size> set initial Java heap size
-Xmx<size> set maximum Java heap size
For example, on Windows, the equivalent would be:
set ANT_OPTS=-Xmx1024 -Xms512
I'm not sure whether you need quotes or not. --DD

Use something like below (512m <=> 512 Megabytes) for your compiles that
requires lots of memory 'cause involves lots of code:
<javac srcdir="${src}"
destdir="${classes}"
fork="yes"
...
memoryInitialSize="512m"
memoryMaximumSize="1024m"
source="${javac.sourceflag}" >
--DD

ANT_OPTS - command-line arguments that should be passed to the JVM.
For example, you can define properties or set the maximum Java
heap size here.
(Probably deserves an FAQ entry, though.)
