How to Allocate more memory to jenkins application

[LnT]

Hi,

Please find below script to start Jenkins master.

java -Xrs:Xmx2048m -XX:MaxPermSize=512m -DJENKINS_HOME=<MY_jenkins_HOME> -jar jenkins.war --httpPort=80  --sessionTimeout=360

SERVER is : Win7 (32Bit) - 4GB RAM

current jenkins app keep getting Slow/Hung for every 3 to 4days. I had to restart.

Could you please advise , how to allocate more memory to jenkins process ?

Or

Pleas advice anything , to ensure Jenkins app works efficiently.
