 ==== Out of memory ====
 
-For some tasks, JOSM has a large appetite for memory. On the one hand, it may be necessary to configure an [[Help/CommandLineOptions]] -Xmx memory size] that supports more JOSM plugins and other JOSM editing features. On the other hand, slow machines with few memory resources, can be stabilized by restricting JOSM memory use.  for example `-Xmx256m` or `-Xmx1536m`.

-Nowadays it is seldom needed because available RAM on computers has grown. Wrongly chosen values can decrease JOSM performance. See affecthave enough RAMOn current systems part of the download option is optional.

 For shortcuts created on the desktop for JNLP and running the Javawebstart launcher , make sure to pass VM parameters prefixed with -J and no intermediate space before the VM option. If you have installed both the 32-bit and 64-bit version, you should pass the option "{{{-d64}}}" if you want to select the preferred 64-bit VM. Note that some Oracle documentation pages indicate the option "-D64" with the incorrect capitalization!)

+==== Downloaded from the internet ====
 If you get an error saying "'JOSM.app' is an application downloaded from the internet." you can bypass this by **right-clicking on JOSM.app** or josm.jnlp and selecting 'open'. You should then see the same message but this time with an option to "Open" regardless. This is only necessary on the first run of JOSM.
 
-If you get an error saying "'JOSM.app' is damaged and can't be opened. You should move it to the Trash", then you need to temporarily disable Gatekeeper. Open System Preferences and the 'Security & Privacy' options. Set 'Allow applications downloaded from:' to 'Anywhere'. If that radio button is missing from the Security & Privacy preferences panel, the following may be entered using the Terminal window to make it appear:
