Mike,

Hmm, it could be. I'm on a mac at this second, but on my NetBeans
install on my machine, the line looks something like this:

netbeans_default_options="-J-client -J-Xss2m -J-Xms32m
-J-XX:PermSize=32m -J-XX:MaxPermSize=384m
-J-Dapple.laf.useScreenMenuBar=true
-J-Dapple.awt.graphics.UseQuartz=true -J-Dsun.java2d.noddraw=true"

That's confusing as all get-out, but those are flags to the java
virtual machine. Experimenting with the numbers might work, as it
should influence the heap size. I recall having problems on some
machines if the numbers get too high, above 2 gigs or so, but I've
heard others say that it works fine. As you can tell, this side of
things is a bit of a black art ...

Let me know,

Stefik
