how to increase Java 64-bit heap size on SQL datamodeler 4.0.0.388 (cause: Java out of Memory error)

user3570898Jan 15 2014 — edited Jan 15 2014

Hi Folks,

i am doing reverse engieering of a complex datamodel. After selecting all the tables i need from dictionary, it takes a while for the model to be drawn (which will not suceed) - after little time, CPU load increases to around 100%, Memory usage stops at around 1 GB. I tried it several times (each try took me at least one hour, as i had to reselect all the 305 tables out of more than a thousand by hand :-( )  but always got the heap Memory error: Java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: GC Overhead Limit exceeded

I re-downloded SQL datamodeler, same issue.

I currently use JRE 1.7 64 bit and SQL datamodeler current version 64 bit (4.0.0.833)

I tried to enlarge heap in the datamodeler64.conf -->     AddVMOption -xmx2g

but still heap max size is at 768MB - under main menu --> help --> info --> properties   -  This conf-setting seems not to have any effect.

Please help, i really do not have any further clue and i Need this Thing done today....

Thanks so much in advance!

Philipp
