Intellij occasionally unable to reserve enough space for object heap

Question

RESOLVED check below for solution.

I\'m using Intellij Idea 2017.2.2. Below is my intellij Specs.

My Intellij would only occasionally fail a maven build or a jbo

Answer 1

I have solved this problem by changing the build settings in Intellij. Please follow the below steps.

For SBT: 1. Go to File -> Settings -> Build, Execution Deployment -> sbt 2. Change the value of Maximum heap size, MB to your available memory. Ex. 512 (Previously this value was 1536, due to this I faced the problem)

For Maven: 1. Go to File -> Settings -> Build, Execution Deployment -> Maven -> Importing

2. Change the value of VM options for importer to your available memory. Ex. -Xmx512m
