Question: out of memory problems on windows (want linux-like workaround)

I often have to create density plots with many (thousands of) points. Hence the first thing I do when I install a new version of maple on linux, is edit dir_of_maple/bin/maple so that

JAVAHEAP=512

is instead

JAVAHEAP=4096

I have done this for years and never have any memory problems. But recently I have sent my code to someone who runs Windows and they seem to have "out of memory" issues when trying to do density plots of large datasets.

My question is, how do I do an equivalent increase in java heap space on Windows?

I have tried playing with maxheap in launch.ini on a Windows installation of maple but it seems when I increase it to more than ~1600m maple does not start at all. Any ideas?


thanks!
