The way to increase the memory heap for the service follow the steps below:

  • You have set up Desigo Optic to run as a service, if using Linux see Linux Memory Heap. For Windows, see steps below:
  • Go to your Optic notification icon in the tray

  1. Right click and select Stop to stop the service
  1. Right click again and select Configure.
  1. Once open, select the Java tab.
  • There, the user will increase the "Maximum memory pool" to something their system is capable of handling depending on space available. Use increments of '512'. (the actual max heap size of a 32-bit JVM will vary slightly).

  • Apply and right click again to Start the service for it to take effect

To increase memory heap for Windows using the command line:

  1. Decline running as a service,
  1. Navigate to installation file location.
  1. From the the props file, edit the heap size value as desired,
  1. Run the unzipped file through a command line.

See the Linux process for reference.
