I'm sure some Xmx setting should be there. Otherwise JVM might want to "consume all the existing memory", and it is not something that is typically wanted. If "out of memory" is the issue, then better strategy would be to display relevant UI warning like "JMeter is might need more memory, Xmx please adjust Xmx and restart". As far as I know, IntelliJ IDEA follows that way. Vladimir
