More Memory for FlexBuilder

August 14th, 2009 by Jason

If you are like me and cannot stand long compile times you may find that increasing the memory allocation for FlexBuilder will help. To do this edit this file. Likewise, if FlexBuilder uses too much memory for your system you can make edits to this file.

C:\Program Files\Adobe\Flex Builder 3\FlexBuilder.ini

Here are my settings
###

-vmargs
-Xms512m
-Xmx1024m
-XX:MaxPermSize=256m
-XX:PermSize=64m
-Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true

###
-Xms512m (minimum memory allocated for FlexBuilder)
-Xmx1024m (max memory cap for FlexBuilder)

If you happen to have 8GB of ram you might change your settings to this :).

-Xms512m
-Xms4096m
