It's important to realize that this is setting the size of the Java heap within the JVM (which sounds like what you're looking for) and not the actual size of the JVM itself. Also note that you're not always going to get the best performance out of your app by using a large heap size because while it decreases the frequency of GC's the time each GC takes is going to increase (more to collect). So, and I know I'm not the first to say this, play around with the different settings until you find the one that suits your app.
