I appreciate the prompt to increase heap size in new beatunes version, but since choosing to increase it, other system functions are too slow. How would I undo the increase (i.e. return to beatunes default)?
Thanks

    Hey Terry,

    you can follow the advice given here and use the parameter

    -Xmx512m

    to set it back to the default.
    Also, I highly recommend updating to beaTunes 4.0.5, as it requires less memory during sync.

    Cheers,
