Description
                    Jalview's default maximum heap size is 256MB. This is too small for tasks involving genomic variant analysis or reasonably sized alignments such as those employed in Jalview hands-on training.
In advance of any automatic heap setting option, we will increase default to 1G for the 2.10.5 release, and provide a 'small memory' jnlp file (jalview_256MB.jnlp) so users can access the old default if necessary.
