General Troubleshooting

If you encounter any of the following symptoms, try increasing the memory allocated to Composer:

• You get OutOfMemory Exceptions
• The perspective layout changes on its own
• The system hangs while loading a Composer Project
• The Composer UI appears slow to respond

1. Edit the Composer.ini file present in the installation folder. Open it in a text editor. It will look like this:

-vm

j2sdk\jre\bin

-vmargs

-Xms40m

-Xmx256m

-XX:MaxPermSize=256m

2. Try increasing the value of --XX:MaxPermSize and--Xmx to a higher value so that the new value may look like:

-vm

j2sdk\jre\bin

-vmargs

-Xms40m

-Xmx512m

-XX:MaxPermSize=512m
