Description

The README includes documentation on how to run the various tests on Daffodil, but does not mention how to increase the memory. Daffodil requires a pretty sizable amount of memory, the default value that sbt uses is usually not enough and can lead to out of memory exceptions. We should document how to bump up this usage, both via editing sbtopts or via the -mem option.
