Getting out of memory issue after updating buildTo

Question

I am getting out of memory issue very often after updating buildToolsVersion '22.0.1' to buildToolsVersion '23.0.1' I am really confused and dont know how to solve this issue, since this error showing only with buildTools version 23.0.1. Whereas it is working fine when I change it to 22.0.1. Please help me. I am posting the error which I am getting as follows,

Uncaught translation error: java.util.concurrent.ExecutionException: java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space

build.gradle

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'

android {
    compileSdkVersion 23
    buildToolsVersion '23.0.1'

    defaultConfig {
        applicationId "com.example.app"
        minSdkVersion 14
        targetSdkVersion 23
        versionCode 1
        versionName "1.0"
        // Enabling multidex support.
        multiDexEnabled true
    }
    buildTypes {
        release {
            minifyEnabled false
            proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
        }
    }
}

dependencies {

    compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.0.1'
    compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:23.0.1'
    compile 'com.android.support:design:23.0.0'
    compile 'com.android.support:cardview-v7:23.0.1'
    compile 'com.android.support:recyclerview-v7:23.0.1'
    compile 'com.android.support:palette-v7:23.0.1'
    compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services:7.5.0'
}

Thanks in advance.

In addition to above procedure, there is another option to set jvm arguments.

org.gradle.jvmargs="-Xms2g -Xmx4g" in gradle.properties .

The setting is for tweaking memory. Xms: Starting memory Xmx: Max memory
