I am trying to set the Xmx parameter when starting up a program. If I set it to 1408M, the JRE starts up fine. If I set it to 1536M, I get
"Could not create the java virtual machine".
I understand that it's trying to reserve consecutive memory space, but the machine I'm running on has 16GB of RAM and 13GB of that is currently free. The program I'm running is running out of heap space and crashing on me. Is there anything I can do to fix this?
