Out of memory in xnat desktop client

All

We are getting the following error when uploading ( and de-identifying ) images to our xnat server using the latest XNAT Desktop client on one of our mac laptops :

These are files for one accession that total 9Gig in size and the tool warns us they are big . I can process and upload  these same images on a mac that has 96 Gig of memory , but not one that has 16 Gig of memory. We've tried to set the "The maximum number of simultaneous uploads " to 1 and it still fails . 

Anything else we can do to set the max memory size within the XNAT desktop tool ? 

Thanks

Also tried running it with : 

JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS="-Xmx10g" open /Applications/XNAT-Desktop-Client.app

Fixed this issue.
