I was facing the same problem. For me the solution provided by Roman Ashikhmin worked but I found that you also need following Environment Variable too,

GRADLE_OPTS : -Xmx2048M

along with the

_JAVA_OPTIONS : -Xmx1024M

Note: For _JAVA_OPTIONS I tried going over 1024M to 2048M or even 4096M but those options don't work. You can do 512M & or 1024M. For GRADLE_OPTS gogin over 2048M didn't work either.

I'm on:

Java 32bit jdk-8u141

global packages:

@ionic/cli-utils : 1.5.0
Cordova CLI      : 7.0.1
Ionic CLI        : 3.5.0

local packages:

@ionic/app-scripts              : 1.3.12
@ionic/cli-plugin-cordova       : 1.4.1
@ionic/cli-plugin-ionic-angular : 1.3.2
Cordova Platforms               : android 6.2.3
Ionic Framework                 : ionic-angular 2.3.0

System:

Node       : v6.11.0
OS         : Windows 10
Xcode      : not installed
ios-deploy : not installed
ios-sim    : not installed
npm        : 3.10.10

Try to add a Windows Environment Variable named _JAVA_OPTIONS with value -Xmx512M.

It helped me to resolve the same issue.
