Changing heapsize / permgen for Launcher?

[Victim]

Hi guys.

How do I change the heapsize and permgen or other options for the launcher?

The only option I see is to increase memory. I read:

http://forums.technicpack.net/topic/39376-technic-launcher-common-problems/

and one of the answers is "Enable "Increase permgen size" in the launcher's settings."

yet I see no way to do this. I assume that answer is outdated for the current launcher version.

 

essentially I'm getting :

[WARNING] Can't keep up! Did the system time change, or is the server overloaded?

but it makes no sense to me, as I have tinkered with setting memory to every option available.

I have been testing the modpack I have been building for two months now, and I am sure

the issue does not lie with the mods loaded as I have tried every iteration I can conceive

and built it up slowly. I had hit a point where I wasn't making any changes and was enjoying

playing the pack on singleplayer for awhile, but I have started experiencing hangs every 5-10 seconds

and getting the 'can't keep up' thing in the logs.

 

I have even rolled back to alternate saves and created new worlds.

 

Win7 x64

64 bit Java

 

mostly interested in my primary question, but if anyone knows what's going on please chime in...

any help is appreciated.

The Permgen was added in by the launcher on default on newer launcher builds.

 

The only way to affect memory is to allocate memory to the launcher, anything between 1-2 gigs should be fine
