??? Not sure where you dug that one up, but it's certainly not true for the Sun JVM. The default is 64m for 32-bit environments, 128m for 64-bit. > You can change this on the java command line by using: java -xmx512m That will get you an error, since command line parameters are case sensitive - needs to be -Xmx512m (upper case X). The HotSpot heap size specifications are more complex than just a simple maximum. Best to read up on it at the Sun web site, assuming that's the JVM you're using. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
