Workbench throws 'OutOfMemoryError'

Problem

If the Workbench server is constrained for resources, there is a possibility that Workbench will show errors in workbench log file mci.log soon after startup.

Solution

The JAVA_OPTS environment variable can be set to modify the resource usage of Java. More specifically, you can halve the Java Stack Size from 2MB to 1MB.

e.g. $JAVA_OPTS=-Xss1024K
