5 out of memory error with large images - ID: 1542982

Last Update: Settings changed ( kah18 )

Details:

When running the program on "large" images the program
crashes with an outofmemory error, something about
needing to allocate a larger heap using the -xmx
parameter. I have verified that I have JVM 1.5
installed.

The size of the last large image I used was a 768 x
576 jpg. I do not have the error if I use a small jpg
like 100x200.

Basically because of the way the image is filtered to find the pixels with the highest filter values, a lot of memory is used. The remedy of this situation is to run the program at the command line, passing in the amount of physical memory your computer has. For example: java -Xmx512m -jar diit-1-5.jar Tells your computer to run diit with 512m (512 megabytes) of RAM. This should be more than sufficient to deal with most pictures from digital cameras. The default if you run by double clicking the jar file is 64MB (the standard Java settings).
