This issue is being caused by the Java heap size being too small, and can be resolved by increasing the Java heap size.
There are two ways to change the Java heap size:
Method 1:
1. In MATLAB, open Preferences, which is under the Home tab.
2. Navigate to MATLAB > General > Java Heap Memory.
3. Set the slider to the maximum value.
If the crash is still occurring, try setting the value higher by using the following steps:
Method 2:
1. Open MATLAB as Administrator.
2. Execute the following commands in the Command Window:
>> matlabroot
>> computer(‘arch’)
3. Set the Current Folder in MATLAB to (result of “matlabroot”)\bin\(result of “computer(‘arch’)”). For example, "C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R2022a\bin\win64"
4. Create a new script with the following line:
-Xmx120m
This is case-sensitive, and you can change “120” to larger values. The number sets the number of MB that constitutes the maximum heap size.
5. Save the script as “java.opts”.
6. Close and reopen MATLAB in non-Administrator mode.
