Description
After working for hours (fortunately with some uploads in between) I got the following error message while I was browsing the presets:
"JOSM is out of memory. Strange things may happen. Please restart JOSM with the -Xmx###M option, where ### is the number of MB assigned to JOSM (e.g. 256). Currently, 109 MB are available to JOSM."
Confirming the message box, JOSM was still responding although very slowly. I tried to restart or quit JOSM several times but unfortunately none of these actions where performed. Instead the same error message box as previously popped up again thus I killed the application.
I used version 3706 on a Linux box (Ubuntu 10.04).
