Edit /usr/share/dbeaver-ce/dbeaver.ini, change the -Xms and -Xmx. In the example belows, check line 20 and 21.
-Xms: It is used for setting the initial and minimum heap size. I set to 1GB.-Xmx: It is used for setting the maximum heap size. I set to 6GB.
On Window, it’s C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\DBeaver\dbeaver.ini or C:\Program Files\DBeaver\dbeaver.ini
On Mac, it’s /Applications/DBeaver.app/Contents/Eclipse/dbeaver.ini
