Q:

Gigaspaces LRMI Java Heap Space OutOfMemoryError

I am getting a java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space on light remote method invocation protocol (and watchdog). You can see the log below. Does anyone know why this would happen and how to solve it?  
What I tried is changing the maximum heap size for the agent, the container, the lookup service and manager:  
export GSA_JAVA_OPTIONS=-Xmx256m  
export GSC_JAVA_OPTIONS=-Xmx8192m  
export GSM_JAVA_OPTIONS=-Xmx4096m  
export LUS_JAVA_OPTIONS=-Xmx4096m  

This didn't help either. It makes sense though - the heap is failing because of lrmi related issue, but I don't see a setting that can help me solve it.

I have a 8 server configuration with 4 GSM's 4 LUS's 16 GSC's (or 8 GSC's) 8 primary partitions and 8 backups (or just 8 primaries). I am getting the error when I try to insert/write objects in the space one by one. When I reach around 200000 (the first partition that reaches this number, fails with the exception above. And I can see that the RAM is not yet field - there is still space in there (8GB - 3.5GB used - around 4GB free).
I also see some additional information in the GSC console (which I couldn't find in the log) about FastConcurrentSkipListMap's iterator causing the issue:
If anyone likes to visit the question on gigaspaces forum, its here.

A:

The problem was that the jvm on the gsc-s was never made bigger because I used the "export" (linux) command for the .bat instead of the "set" (windows) command for environment variables. Once you make the jvm heap space bigger, this issue will go away.
