Java Embedding Plugin / Discussion / Help: Heap size in Java for Mac OS X 10.4 Release 5

Anonymous - 2007-03-20

Hi,
The recent Release 5 update of Java for Mac OS X changes the default applet memory limits from 64mb to 96mb (in line with Windows).

Safari correctly reports the maximum heap as 96mb in the java console and the webpage based jar i am developing runs fine.
Firefox 2.0.0.2 (only one I have tested in) only reports 64mb total. I briefly scanned the code but could not determine if this is set by this plugin.

Does anyone know where I should start looking for the setting?

Thanks,
Tim Watson

  The JEP doesn't (and never has) set this value explicitly.
  
  Maybe it _does_ need to set it explicitly. I'll look into this.

  I've just released JEP 0.9.6.1, which addresses this problem.
  
  I _did_ need to set the maximum heap size explicitly to 96 MB. Now
  the Java Embedding Plugin does this whenever it runs on OS X 10.4.X
  and above (unless the user has already set the value in the Java
  Control Panel).
  
  See item #4 in JEP 0.9.6.1's Changes.txt.
