I have the same problem: I cant set my tekkit's memory to higher than one gig in the options menu.

I did a bunch of research. this has to do with heap sizes, as I canno run my server with more than one gig. for some reason, java has a set limit to how much that can be. I have not found a way to increase this ammount. I think that tekkit will not let you set it's memory option higher than that heap space, so tekkit can run without errors.

I know one thing though: my sister uses a 4 gig mac for tekkit, she can set the setting to 4 gigabytes.

If you want to fix this, research:  "could not reserve enough space for object heap", as this is the error you would encounter if you set the momory higher than java's default ammount
