  Amount of memory to set to the Cassandra's JVM heap.
  Used for both minimum and maximum heap size (`-Xms` and `-Xmx` respectively).
  Valid values are formed by an integer, followed by one of the following memory units:
  `k` (kilobytes), `m` (megabytes), `g` (gigabytes).
  Memory units can also be capitalized as `K`, `M`, `G`.
