On some computers, the standalone version of Sigasi will fail to start with an error message similar to: "Could not create the Java virtual machine." This happens especially on 32-bit Windows machines with less than 2GB of physical memory. The reason is that the Java virtual machine tries to allocate more much memory than what is available.

In order to solve this, you can to decrease the default heap size settings of Eclipse. You can do this by adding following lines to sigasi.ini in your Sigasi installation folder:

-vmargs
-Xmx1000m

This sets the maximum heap size to 1000 MB (instead of the standard 1400MB).

Note: Do not use eclipsec.exe instead of sigasi.exe, as this will ignore all of the settings configured in the sigasi.ini file.
