There a few settings you might want to adjust after installing Studio.

Increase Corticon Studio memory allocation

When working on large Rule Projects, you will get better performance by increasing the amount of memory available to Corticon Studio.

To change Corticon Studio memory allocation after installation, do the following:
  1. Edit the command file eclipse.ini located at [CORTICON_HOME]\Studio\eclipse
  2. Change (typically, increase) the Xmx value (maximum memory setting). The default Xmx setting is 2 gigabyte, specified as Xmx2g. Often, that is increased to 4g when appropriate memory is available.

You can specify a preferred language for Corticon Studio. The options are:
  • English (en - default)
  • French (fr)
  • Japanese (ja)
  • Portuguese (Brazilian) (pt_BR)
