There are command line options to the java command that control the
heap size -- -ms to specify the initial size, and -mx to specify the
maximum size (I think I've sometimes seen -Xms and -Xmx, I'm not sure
what the difference is). To take advantage of them, though, your
servlet container has to allow you to, either by giving you a place to
specify them for the servlet container, or by allowing you to modify
the java call directly (e.g. if it's part of a shell script on a UNIX
system).
Now, be aware that OutOfMemoryError's could be indicative or memory
leaks in your code. Yes, Java can have memory leaks, if you're not
handling/disposing of references properly. So adding more memory may
not fix the problem, it may only delay it.
