The XEP reference doc mentions this can be a problem, and you can solve it
by increasing the amount of memory assigned to the JVM. (Shades of classic
Mac OS!)

"You may need to add an -Xmx switch to the Java call mentioned above in
order to increase the amount of memory available to Java. Recommended value
of -Xmx is about 80% of physical RAM available on the computer that runs
XEP."

I pass "-Xmx150000000" on my machine, which has 2 gigs of RAM.

I don't know how you'd pass that argument to the JVM using the assistant,
but you need to.

Cheers,

Chris
