Cannot get the server to use more than 1GB of memory.

Hey guys, I am running a dedicated server (starting by running the batch file), building a project for a server event we have planned. The problem is that the server is running out of memory. It refuses to use more than 1,035,520KB (the memory info in the upper left) and garbage collection isn't happening fast enough before it is running out of memory.



The server startup file is set to the following-


java -Xms2048m -Xmx4096m -Xincgc -Xshareff -jar StarMade.jar -server




Yet despite of this, the server starts with 128KB of memory and maxes out at ~1GB, as if it doesn't care about the java parameters. When the server starts, the top line referances those exact parameters.

Any suggestions?



Edit: I have 16GB of RAM, and a 64bit OS and 64bit java if you are wondering.

What happens if you modify the values in the launcher and start it from there?

That worked! Thank you



Thats... odd why it wouldn\'t work though.

If you edit the .bat file, then you have to start the server from .bat file too, not from starmade launcher.
