When starting a new project gradle sync fails, and the only solution That fix it is adding to gradle.properties file in the project the next line: org.gradle.jvmargs=-Xmx1024m
I know it allocates more memory than specified in the begining, my question is if there is a way of fixing it without making changes in the gradle file?Or where can I change it to permanently allocate 1024 without me adding it every time to the gradle file? TNX
You are modifying the JVM args with that flag. To make more "permanent" modifications to your memory allocation, you should check Environment Variables. You should have a System Variable called _JAVA_OPTIONS with the value -Xms256m -Xmx512m. You can change it here, maybe to -Xms256m -Xmx1024m to increase the JVM max heap size accordingly.
