This is a simple script to allow DBeaver to use more memory than the default 1 GB. It will change a file called dbeaver.ini in the same directory as the dbeaver executable. It will also create a backup of the original dbeaver.ini file, with name dbeaver.ini.backup.

Only MacOS is supported at the moment.

npm install -g dbeaver-allow-memory

dbeaver-allow-memory -m <memory>

• -m <memory> - memory in MB to allow DBeaver to use.

# Allow DBeaver to use 16GB of memory.
dbeaver-allow-memory -m 16384

# Show help.
dbeaver-allow-memory --help

# Show version.
dbeaver-allow-memory --version
