This section describes how to change the memory settings for the Java Virtual Machine when running Aspire. It depends on how you are running Aspire.
By default Aspire uses 1 GB of memory for evaluation purposes, but for production or development environments we recommend to increase this accordingly. Check the Hardware and Network Considerations for the recommend memory allocation settings.
