These values can be edited in the php.ini.hbs file within the site’s conf/php/ folder. You can open this file in the text editor of your choice, and save the updated values. After making any adjustments, be sure to stop the site and restart it so that Local can compile and use those new settings.

I just replicated the steps to change memory on my Local App, and it’s still working normally for the latest version. These steps again are:
Start Site
Open php.ini.hbs file in a text editor
Adjust the memory to desired limit, save file
Stop the site
Start the site again
Recheck the file and the changes should still be present
Hi @s.doig - yes you should be able to set it to whatever you would like. You’re not limited by the Local App but by your own machine. I’ve tested it this on my own app and had no problem setting it to 512MB for example.
