To increase Tomcat memory:

Go to CATALINA_HOME or Tomcat Install /bin folder e.g. D:/Tomcat5.5/bin
Run Tomcat Configuration by executing tomcat5w.exe
Under the Java Tab there is a field Maximum Memory Pool the default for it is 64 MB. You can increase it to 512 MB.
Depending on the RAM size you have you can increase it further.
