Issue explanation

After commit https://github.com/AndroidIDEOfficial/AndroidIDE/actions/runs/8363217788
'xmx' configuration used to build the project is 712 MBs instead of the one defined in gradle.properties, preventing the execution of certain tasks and the build

Expected behavior

Recognize the value of xmx from org.gradle.jvmargs to that defined in the project's Gradle properties file instead of 712 MBs.

Relevant log output

> Task :app:mergeExtDexDebug
> Task :app:mergeLibDexDebug

The Daemon will expire after the build after running out of JVM heap space.
The project memory settings are likely not configured or are configured to an insufficient value.
The daemon will restart for the next build, which may increase subsequent build times.
These settings can be adjusted by setting 'org.gradle.jvmargs' in 'gradle.properties'.
The currently configured max heap space is '712 MiB' and the configured max metaspace is 'unknown'.
For more information on how to set these values, please refer to https://docs.gradle.org/8.6/userguide/build_environment.html#sec:configuring_jvm_memory in the Gradle documentation.
To disable this warning, set 'org.gradle.daemon.performance.disable-logging=true'.
Daemon will be stopped at the end of the build after running out of JVM heap space

The mentioned commit uses addJvmArguments to specify arguments for the Java VM, which, for some reason, resets the Xmx value for the daemon. The Gradle Daemon docs mentions :

Daemons use the JVM’s default minimum heap size.

And from the JVM 17 docs :

Maximum heap size of 1/4 of physical memory

I have added a commit which should fix the issue (works in my tests at least). Can you retry with the latest CI build?

[Rafael2616]

Got it, I'll test and check if the error has been fixed 👍

Ok, I don't know if this is related to the last commit, as the version I was using before upgrading to this is one from about 3 months ago, but when trying to initialize my multi-module project the app starts to freeze and becomes unusable (it didn't happen in the commit I was using)
This happens right after the project has been successfully initialized.

After some time stuttering, the IDE shows the crash log:

This didn't happen in the version from 3 months ago that I used before upgrading to this one, but when I downgraded again to the version I used (and that worked) the error starts to happen there too.. Could it be due to some configuration that is persisted even after the downgrade?

After some days of testing, I reinstalled the IDE from scratch, cleaned the IDE data and Gradle caches, but the crash problem continued even after all this. So after I need to open my project sometimes without any hope just to access some files, the project iinitialized successfully and from then on for about 2 days every time it continued to initialize as if sitting had occurred
But today it started to happen again and thanks to the new implementation of the memory graph, I noticed this pattern in the following video. IDE memory consumption scales quickly after project initialization, in the configuration phase of project "I believe"

And the original problem of this Issue has actually been fixed. So I think I can move this to another problem?

Sure. Memory issues could be discussed in #1694.
