Java – How Do I Run IntelliJ IDEA 9 as a 64-bit Process

64-bitintellij-ideajava

I've noticed that IntelliJ IDEA 9 runs as a 32-bit process in Windows 2003 x64 and would like to configure it to run as a 64-bit process. I did find an article about how to perform this in Mac OSX, but not in Windows.

Update #1: I have the 64-bit version of JDK 1.6.18 installed.

This post might help. It mentions using an idea64.exe launcher on Windows.
