MATLAB Java heap memory

[Kouichi_C_Nakamura]

The documentation for Bio-Formats MATLAB toolbox below tells us about how to increase Java heap memory size.
https://docs.openmicroscopy.org/bio-for ... b-dev.html

There is a link to the following page.
How do I increase the heap space for the Java VM in MATLAB 6.0 (R12) and later versions?

Actually, as one of the comments says, from R2010a onwards, MATLAB's preference has a configuration for Java heap memory.

So the information on Bio-Formats documentation is a bit outdated. I'd like to suggest to add the following in the See also box.

Hi Kouichi,

thanks for raising our attention to this. Certainly nice to see there is an official MATLAB documentation page and an option allowing to adjust the Java heap size via the UI.

Keeping the reference to the `java.opts` path is probably still valid for the cases where MATLAB is running headless. So updating the see also box as you suggested makes complete sense. The source code for this documentation page is available at https://github.com/ome/bio-formats-docu ... ab-dev.rst. Feel free to open a Pull Request directly else we will card your suggestion for the upcoming milestone.

Best,
Sebastien
