Java Heap Space Error while sending data more than 12 MB over SOAP using Webservices

I am trying to send an object of 15 MB from Flex to Java using webservice. My server is tomcat. I have set memory both in Eclipse and tomcat as -Xmx1024m -XX:MaxPermSize=1024m But I am getting this error:-

Try increasing -Xmx1024m to for example -Xmx2048m. Your MaxPermSize is probably way too large it does not help when heap runs out, try -XX:MaxPermSize=128m.

Have you tried sending data over chunks -
