Out of memory error

I am trying to run jasmine to merge 20,000 samples and keep getting this error:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space

Would you be able to help me address this? Is there an option to increase java memory?

I think I've managed to increase it, but still getting the same error at 96GB. How much memory would you recommend for merging 100,000 files?
