In intelliJ 13 ultimate, how do you increase the compiler maximum heap size?

I recently upgraded to IntelliJ IDEA 13 from 11. There used to be a box under setting/java compiler where you could over ride the compiler maximum heap size. It is no longer there. This is stopping me from compiling my project do to a "GC overhead limit exceeded." Can someone tell me where this option is or a viable alternative? Any and all information would be helpful. Thanks.

alter the vm options file in the intellij install directory.

Alternatively fix the problem that causes out of memory errors.
