Heap sizes with Planning11.1.1.3 & Weblogic help

Question

I'm used to having the xms and xmx heap sizes in the registry with planning. But i installed Planning 11.1.1.3 with weblogic 9.2 (all 32 bit) and deployed as a service. However, the registry does not have the usually heap settings automatically added. I can modify the setDomainEnv script to bump up heap sizes but running that script leaves the command window running in the foreground which is something i don't want. I tried manually adding the heap size settings to the Hyperion Planning registry settings, but they are not taking effect when starting the web server via the services console. Anyone have any ideas. I peaked around the web logic admin console but i didnt really want to try and set the heap sizes through there. plus, i'm not sure any settings in there will take effect when starting from the service console. I thought all the arguments for a service are derived from the registry.

Are the heap sizes already present in your planning registry setting? Did you use the jrockit jvm or the sun jvm when configuring Weblogic. I'm trying to track down what caused my install not to create the heap size jvmoption in my registry. I know Weblogic recommends using the jrockit jvm for performance reasons, but if i can't get the planning service to run with larger heaps, i may have to change jvms. Having the planning web running in the foreground seems to risky for me (someone logging out and shutting down any running windows).We are using Jrockit JVM and the heap size setup is around 1GB.
As John mentioned, 1.8GB may be the max even though you are using 64bit version.
