Memory For Igv Browser

Hi,

I just want to ask why I can't allocate 4g memory to IGV as:

java -Xmx4g -Dsun.java2d.noddraw=true -jar %BatchPath%\igv.jar  %*

When I set this, IGV can't be started.

the maximum memory works normal is 1g. My OS is win7.

Thanks.

You probably need a 64-bit JVM from java.sun.com.
