How do I provide JVM arguments to VisualVM?

Should be able to modify the memory settings in %JDK_HOME%\lib\visualvm\etc\visualvm.conf

Xms and Xmx are in the default_options line.

I started with

jvisualvm -J-Xms1024m -J-Xmx2048m

and it worked.

or I think this works too:

jvisualvm.exe -J-Xmx512m (or whatever amount you need)

-J on the .exe command line for onetime settings, or the .conf file noted in the other answer for changing defaults
