Can Not Reserve Enough Space For Object Heap

Hi all,

I've been using Logstash and Elasticsearch for a while now and have survived using a 1g object heap for development. However, I can not get the heap to go over 1150Mb before it says I can not reserve enough space for the heap, and my configurations are becoming more demanding. I first noticed this when trying to use a double logstash input (S3 and file).

All the size tweaking I have been doing has been in logstash jvm.options and elasticsearch setup.bat. I have a user environmental variable set: _JAVA_OPTIONS => -Xmx2g -Xms2g

I am running everything on JDK and JRE 1.8.0_141. PC has 32g of RAM on Windows 7.

Any thoughts?

Thanks!!!

Do you have a 64-bit JVM?

Hey there @magnusbaeck. Yes, am running 64-bit VM. I found the issue, when I set the JAVA_HOME path after I first downloaded Logstash, I used Program Files (x86) instead of Program Files. Silly silly me. Thanks for the help though!

Well, then you weren't using a 64-bit JVM after all.
