Hi Niclas, You should really do this using the environment variable "CATALINA_OPTS". That's what it's designed for.
Set up an environment variable called "CATALINA_OPTS" and set it's value to "-Xms<size> -Xmx<size>". The easiest way to do this is by right-clicking on your "My Computer" icon and then selecting the "Environment" tab.
