Java heap space on deploying with flex-plugin

Question

I have one flex project in maven. I am able to package and install it without any problems, but I am not able to deploy it:

[ERROR] Java heap space -> [Help 1]
java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space
        at java.util.Arrays.copyOf(Arrays.java:2734)
        at java.util.ArrayList.ensureCapacity(ArrayList.java:167)
        at java.util.ArrayList.addAll(ArrayList.java:474)
        at org.apache.maven.project.MavenProject.setActiveProfiles(MavenProject.java:1410)
        at org.apache.maven.project.MavenProject.deepCopy(MavenProject.java:1961)

I have already increased maximum allocated memory (set MAVEN_OPTS=-Xms2512m -Xmx3512m), no success.

This is my pom:

"mvn package" runs ok. "mvn install" runs ok. "mvn deploy" fails with the exception above.

What is wrong?

That is WAY too much memory for maven and Java. You've literally ran out of memory in your computer. Set it to Xmx1024m and Xms512m. Should be more than enough for what you're trying to accomplish. Also, you should look into using FlexMojos if you want to compile Flex using Maven.
