Either don't read so large a file into memory (ie read chunks and
process them rather than the entire file) or increase the memory that
Tomcat can use.  You can increase the memory allowed to the VM using
the -X arguements (java -X for help).  The one you'll want is going to
be -Xmx###M where the ### should be the amount of memory you want to
allocate.  Generally for production servers I typically allow tomcat
at least 256 megs of ram using the option "-Xmx256M".
