If this is read only then use the eventusermodel (that should get you to maybe 7mb for about a 4mb mostly numerical file). 64mb is the default max heap, you'd want to go UP not down.

I need to read excel spreadsheets with approx. 40 columns
of data where the row size ranges from approx. 1000 - 20000
rows. The code has no problems reading up to about 3000
rows but above that gives the java.lang.OutOfMemory error.
I have tried varsious -Xmx options of up to 64M with no
success.
