So when I first played, this wasn't an issue as my PC wasn't great. Now that I've upgraded, though, I need to start allocating more ram. According to F3, it's allocating 500mb of memory, and i'm hitting that 100% all the time, and it's making it lag horribly.
I tried a bunch of the Google guides, but most are at least 2 years dated and no one seems to agree on what works. None worked for me. When I edit the profile and the JVM Arguments, I get an error message after saving and hitting play (Could not create Java virtual machine). When I try creating a shortcut, I can't find the file directory (I'm assuming it's not in %appdata%, as that didn't work.)
What is the most current way to? I have 16 gigs of Ram, half a gig isn't cutting it.
Sounds like you have a 32 bit version of java if it can't create the virtual machine with more than 1GB. Remove java, then download and install the 64 bit version.
*insert what "Builderb0y" said here*
Also, you cannot put more than I think it was 5+ GB of RAM to Minecraft, I recommend doing the Java re-install and using at most 4 GB but I generally just set it to 3 GB because at that point it doesn't seem to make a difference
Hi. I am having the same issue and have tried uninstalling, reinstalling and overriding java. yes i am using both eviroment and the normal java latest on 64bit. every time i try to change the ammount of memory my server is using i still get the same errors. any ideas? if you need more information i will provide it.
sorry about piggybacking off of someone elses thread but its the same issue, so.

I made my own shader pack, by the way.
