> One of the things that have always annoyed me when creating applications on 
> NetBeans Platform is that the max heap size is defined explicitly in the 
> {{app.conf}} to 64 MB. As a default value, this is much too low.
> I don't know why the value was set. Apparently (from Mecurial's histyory) it 
> dates back to 2005. Perhaps the idea is that if setting a ridiculously low 
> value it will force the developer to change his application's {{myapp.conf}} 
> file?  But I'm guessing this wasn't the intention, even in 2005.
> Suggesting to remove both the min and the max heap from this file to make 
> adoption of Platform easier for newbies and give them less surprises.
> (note: The 64 MB limit doesn't effect the IDE as it uses its own customized 
> version of the {{.conf}} file)
