macos - Android Studio Out of Memory

Question

This morning I have been experiencing an issue with Android Studio, whenever I open it I am getting the following error.

I have tried removing Android Studio and getting a clean install. Removing all the preference folders. Removing and re-downloading my project's repository. Creating a new project. All of these still end with this error showing up. No mater how high I increase the memory it is still getting this issue.

I have checked the Activity Monitor and it is actually only using 524mb of memory. Does anyone have any suggestions?

The next thing I'm going to try is using an older version of Android studios. Apart from that I'm not sure what else to do beside a clean install of the OS and hope for the best.

UPDATE: Couldn't work out a way of fixing this, and had to perform a clean reinstall of OSX.

Answer 1

I was fighting with this problem today for a few hours and ended up trying File -> Invalidate Caches / Restart... and chose the Invalidate/Restart option. Seems to have fixed the Out of Memory error.

Don't know if that will work for you at a later time, but hopefully it helps.
