In the DevStudio.ini file that is in the installation folder of the Dev Studio... This was earlier pointed out in this thread..
When setting the max settings make sure you do not exceed the total available free memory by more than 70% of it if you are on workstations that have a max of 4 GB memory. Total available free memory is defined not by the total RAM on the machine but whatever is free after some of it has been used by other processes when they startup.. So startup as much as you are likely to use on your machine, and check the memory consumption before you can determine what may be available for your JVM. You could go a little more higher (80 to 85%) if you are on a 8 GB client (with my limited experience of tweaking this on 8 GB workstations on 64 bit OS’s as these are pretty new)..

Sometimes it won't open new objects until I close other windows (other apps) and working today performance finally degraded to the point where it's unusable. This is a 7.6.3 environment FWIW.
