Memory parameter settings
During an interactive installation, you are prompted for memory parameters for your
system. These parameter values are written to the
sandbox.cfg
property file. After
installation, you can edit these values as needed for performance and tuning. These suggested
minimum memory requirements are based on the products you are installing. Values can vary, depending
on your environment.

During installation, you can use JVM-specific arguments in your Sandbox.cfg file, such as ADDITIONAL_ANT_JAVA_TASK_ARGS and ADDITIONAL_ANT_COMPILER_TASK_ARGS, to avoid out-of-memory errors. For more information about how the memory parameters relate to the ADDITIONAL_ANT_JAVA_TASK_ARGS and ADDITIONAL_ANT_COMPILER_TASK_ARGS properties, see the Sandbox.cfg installation properties.
