Ran out of memory with a heap size of 121634816

[Md. Shafiullah]

My system is rp8420 with HPUX 11i.
I have 20GB memory. Free 7.1GB
When i try to run a GUI program it says

$/opt/SIU/bin/launchpad &
[1] 6433

$Ran out of memory with a heap size of 121634816

[1] + Done(1)
/opt/SIU/bin/launchpad &

Could you help to solve the problem?

Looks like something related to java. Does this lauchpad uses java in some way?? If yes, you should look at controlling heap size for it.-max heap size, initial heap size.

Dear all
As this is a GUI program it uses Java. What is heap size anyway and how to set max heap size?

[Ivajlo Yanakiev]

java -Xms64m -Xmx512m

where -Xms specifies the initial Java heap size and -Xmx the maximum Java heap size.

take care that heap size have hardware /platform/ max size.

ps -efx | grep [j]ava will tell what are current sizes. you can control them as follows

java -x "options"
