I have tried making changes to the JVM using the Alfresco Wiki but am still getting the OutOfMemoryError. The following are the settings I am using for JAVA_OPTS:

JAVA_OPTS=-server -Xss1024k -Xms1G -Xmx2G -XX:MaxPermSize=128m -XX:NewSize=512m

I have tried rebooting the server multiple times and rerunning the service but am getting the same errors every time.

You may need to go higher than 128m then - try 192?
