I agree too. Last time I saw such a small heap I tried to get a java 8 JVM
to be loaded into a legacy 32 bit win32 application.

> Standard Max Heap Size is 64m - way too small
> ---------------------------------------------
>
> Key: NETBEANS-149
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-149
> Project: NetBeans
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: lbruun
> Assignee: lbruun
> Priority: Trivial
> Labels: pull-request-available
>
> A thing 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 history) 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)
