Description

Line 109 of the plexus.bat file in the standalone distribution reads:

if "%PLEXUS_OPTS%"=="" SET PLEXUS_OPTS="-Xmx384"

As documented at "http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/technotes/tools/windows/java.html", the number given to the above directive specifies the maximum size, in bytes, of the memory allocation pool. The directive allows "k" or "m" as a suffix to specify the size in kilobytes or megabytes.

As far as I know, 384 bytes are just a little bit tight.

I think, the intention was to specify 384 Megabytes, so the line should read:

if "%PLEXUS_OPTS%"=="" SET PLEXUS_OPTS="-Xmx384m"
