time, and quits with OOM:

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
- 1.3.1-SNAPSHOT, Windows XP

Please provide any additional information below.
- I was able to work around the problem by adding MAVEN_OPTS=-Xmx1g

Using MAVEN_OPTS is a typical need for more than small code bases.  I don't 
think
this issue is a bug, unless I misunderstand your report.

I think you understood fine.  Basically, the user experience for the 1st timer 
is this:

1. download testability explorer
2. modify pom.xml of my project
3. run "mvn clean site"
4. maven spins for a long time and blows up with OOM.
5. ...
6. Profit.

OK... perhaps then a "getting started" page with:
  For Maven users:
   1. Add the following dep to reporting section...
   2. Since TE requires a lot of resources, may need to set MAVEN_OPTS=-Xmx1024m
   3. Run "mvn clean site".

No need for download anymore, as 1.3.3 is in central! :-)

That'd be great. :)
