How to increase the Heap space of Jdeveloper for about more than 512 MB?

855645Aug 5 2011 — edited Aug 5 2011
When starting JDeveloper, the application within JDeveloper is throwing the error message:
"could not reserve enough space for object heap"

and a windows popup with the following error message:
"Unable to create an instance of the Java Virtual Machine Located at path: ..\..\jdk\jre\bin\client\jvm.dll "


To resolve these issues, i know that adding the following in ide.conf , jdev.conf will help.

AddVMOption -XX:MaxPermSize=512M
AddVMOption -Xmx512M
AddVMOption -Xms512M

I have got 10 GB of RAM in my desktop machine and virtual memory of 15 GB (page size). I am not able to increse the heap space of Jdeveloper for about more than 512MB. This is really frustrating..I had to restart my jdevloper after 3 or 4 deployments.....Has anyone tried success in increasing the heap space in jdeveloper for about 2 GB?
