+With effect from build 4723 (13 November 2013), all the JVM and GATE launch
+options can be set in the \texttt{gate.l4j.ini} file on all platforms, as well
+as by using options to the \texttt{gate.sh} command.
+
+The \texttt{gate.l4j.ini} file supplied by default with GATE simply sets two
+standard JVM memory options:
+%
+\begin{verbatim}
+-Xmx1G
+-Xms200m
+\end{verbatim}
+%
+\texttt{-Xmx} specifies the maximum heap size in megabytes (\texttt{m}) or
+gigabytes (\texttt{g}), and -Xms specifies the initial size. Other parameters
of
+interest are \texttt{-XX:MaxPermSize=128m} for the "permanent generation",
which
+you may wish to specify if you are getting OutOfMemoryErrors that say "PermGen
+space".
+
+
+
+Note that the format consists of one option per line. All the properties
listed
+in Section~\ref{sec:gettingstarted:sysprop} can be configured here by prefixing
+them with \texttt{-D}, e.g.,
\texttt{-Dgate.user.config=path/to/other-gate.xml}.
+
+
+Proxy configuration (see Section~\ref{sec:misc-creole:proxy}) can now be set in
+this file by adding these lines and editing them as needed for your
+configuration.

+-Drun.java.net.useSystemProxies=true
