We have a very limited set of users...most of them are analysts who run these programs from the shell anyway.  It the default setting doesn't work, I don't want them asking me what's wrong.  I'd like them to be able to set it themselves as an option.

Hi Ryan -

I have done similar things with our tools as well.  For now I have edited
the xml file to include the following option in the <command> section that
would get passed into the picard script wrapper:

--maxjheap="8g"

I considered exposing this out in the UI, but have teetered on whether to
expose the complexity out to the end user.

Thanks,

Ann
