Java.lang.OutOfMemoryError when trying to refresh all User objects

Question

Hello - I am running IdM version 7.1. Currently, I am attempting to refresh all user objects in the IdM database as directed in this article:
http://docs.sun.com/source/820-2961/A_edit_configObjects.html
In order to interface with the Database, I am using NetBeans on a Windows 2003 SP2 server with 3.5G of memory. Through NetBeans, I select the "Run lh command" option, provide the Configurator password when prompted, and then enter the command: "refreshType User". This is supposed to go through and "touch" each user record.
The command runs for about 5 minutes and then bombs out with an error message:
Exception in thread "Object Change Dispatcher" java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space
I'm assuming that the JRE on the Windows server I'm running NetBeans on is running out of memory. My questions are 1) Is my assumption correct and 2) If so, is there a way to allocate more memory to the Java process which is running the lh command? This Windows server is running JRE 1.5
Thanks in advance!

I ran into same issue, ran the deferred task scanner instead.. Took a long time to run, but didn't hang.. :)
