java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: GC overhead limit exceeded  with Patch 20181997: Oracle WebLogic Server 10.3.6 for Generic Platform - SU Patch [YUIS]: WLS PATCH SET UPDATE 10.3.6.0.11

Applied Patch 20181997: Oracle WebLogic Server 10.3.6 for Generic Platform - SU Patch [YUIS]: WLS PATCH SET UPDATE 10.3.6.0.11 but getting below errors in the logs even though patch is applied successfully?

For time being, I've rather chosen to stick with Patch 19637463 SU Patch[12UV] WebLogic Server 10.3.6.0.10 till 10.3.6.0.11 get's a bit more stable in terms of reported bugs.

This isn't a bug, however, you will need to edit the bsu.sh (or bsu.cmd as appropriate) and increase heap size by adjusting the value MEM_ARGS="-Xms256m -Xmx1024m" or MEM_ARGS="-Xms512m -Xmx1024m"
