Windows

Attempt to run RuneScape and you will see a small Java 'Coffee mug' icon appear in the bottom right of the Windows taskbar (the system tray).

Right click this icon and select the 'Open Control Panel' option.

Select the 'Java' tab on the window that appears. You should see two panes.

Select 'View' under the first pane, which will be labeled 'Java Applet Runtime Settings'.

You will now see your installed Java versions. In the fourth column (titled 'Java Runtime Parameters') double click, and you will have a text entry box.

Type -xmx128m into the box. The 128 part tells Java to use up to 128mb of RAM instead of the default, which is much lower. To allocate more or less, just change the number. It is not recommended to go for any more than 60% of your total RAM!

Click Apply and OK, then close your browser (if open) and re-open. Try playing RuneScape!

Mac

Go to Applications, then Utilities and click 'Java Preferences'.

Select the 'General' tab.

Highlight the Java version at the top of the top box and click 'Options'.

Enter/add: -Xmx128m.

The 128 part of -Xmx128m tells Java to use up to 128mb of RAM instead of the default, which is much lower. To allocate more or less, just change the number. It is not recommended to go for any more than 60% of your total RAM.
