IDEA pushes Firefox into swap

Question

IDE

Windows 7x64, FF20 (the other one doesn't fit), IDEA 12 (Other JAVA IDE can't be used)
Memory on machine 8GB, free during operation 1-3GB. While the work was carried out in Eclipse, everything was fine. When I was forced to switch to IntellijIDEA, I ran into the problem of constant FF swap (as soon as I close IDEA, FF returns to RAM and everything is ok).
Help me how to be?

Answer 1

In the lower right corner is an indicator of the memory used by the idea. If you click on it, it tries to read what it has. It is at the maximum allowable - restriction. Play around with the file (idea_home/)bin/idea.exe.vmoption - I think you can change the limit in it.

Answer 2

deliver another 8 gigs...
