Adding More Memory to Protege 4
In Progress
Non-OS X Operating Systems
Edit the Protege.lax file with a text editor and change the initial and maximum heap size. Unfortunately you can only do this in bytes so you need to track the number of zeros:
# LAX.NL.JAVA.OPTION.JAVA.HEAP.SIZE.INITIAL # ----------------------------------------- # initial heap size lax.nl.java.option.java.heap.size.initial=800000000 # LAX.NL.JAVA.OPTION.JAVA.HEAP.SIZE.MAX # ------------------------------------- # maximum heap size lax.nl.java.option.java.heap.size.max=800000000
OS X
Editting the Info.plist
Navigate to the Protege 4 application in the finder and right click on the Protege 4 owl editor application. Select "Show Package Contents".
A new finder window will come up and in that window navigate to Contents and edit the Info.plist file in a text editor (alternatively you can use the os x plist editor by double-clicking if it is installed). Near the bottom of this file there are the lines
<key>VMOptions</key>
<array>
<string>-Xms200M</string>
<string>-Xmx200M</string>
<string>-Dosgi.clean=true</string>
</array>
Modify the -Xmx and (optionally) the -Xms lines to the desired amount of memory
<key>VMOptions</key>
<array>
<string>-Xms800M</string>
<string>-Xmx800M</string>
<string>-Dosgi.clean=true</string>
</array>
Users with the zip file distribution
Edit the run.sh (or for windows users the run.bat) file and modify the -Xmx line:
java ${CMD_OPTIONS} -Xmx800M -Dosgi.clean=true -jar org.eclipse.osgi.jar
