Doesn't work I've set -Xms512m -Xmx512m but that apparently isn't enough apparently, Raspberry pi 3 only has 1 gb ram. I figure I can get around it by creating a virtual network card and bridging it to my loopback address, because it works if I run it locally. But I've just gone back to an earlier version where it does work so it's all good.
