title: Out-of-memory-error on Minecraft Server with 16G RAM
body: <p>Please excuse my inexperience, this is my first time on the site.
  I have a <code>Dell PowerEdge r710</code> with 2 <code>Xeon L5630</code> CPUs and <code>16G RAM</code> installed. I'm trying to host a Minecraft <code>1.7.10</code> Forge Server that runs perfectly fine on my Desktop, but refuses to run properly on the server. </p>
  
  <p>This machine is running Java 8, and runs perfectly otherwise. When running the application without the mods, it loads up without a hitch. As I add more mods, it gets worse. As far as my (very, very limited) knowledge goes, the order of JVM arguments doesn't matter, and didn't on my Desktop, but in order to get the application to even run I had to change the order in my .bat file. With all mods installed, the <code>Out Of Memory</code> Error occurs with a chunk loading error when around 41% spawn loaded. </p>
  
  <p>This is the .bat file that I've made to start the server:</p>
  
  <pre><code>java -jar minecraft_server.jar -Xms512M -Xmx8192M  nogui -XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemory
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This should load up perfectly fine, everything is compatible and tested on another machine, but the exact same setup will not run on the <code>r710</code>, saying <code>Out Of Memory</code> with more than double the desktop's allocated memory.</p>
