MC crashes on startup with fresh installed Forge

[Snowroark]

Hi, I have an issue with Forge not starting at all.

 

I installed a fresh MC 1.15.2 via the launcher and then installed Forge through the installer.jar

The Vanilla version starts without an issue but when I want to run forge it crashes right after I click 'Play'.

Since my launcher wasn't updated to the newest version I did that first and for some reason I could start it then. But only once. After I restarted it crashed again and I couldn't get it to work anymore even though I didn't change anything. I have no mods installed or anything like that. I then removed everything and reinstalled MC and forge again but without luck.

 

I am playing on Linux, Manjaro 20.0.1

 

My Java version:

openjdk version "1.8.0_242"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_242-b08)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.242-b08, mixed mode)

 

 

Here's my MC log:

I'm not sure how clear it looks as plain text so I will add a screenshot as well if that's okay:

Thanks for your help. It was the same method for Manjaro and it fixed my issue.

My default number for those watches was 16384 and I set it now to 524288.
I don't know if that's too much (since that's the highest you can have) or what even the minimum is that I would have needed for MC but as long as it doesn't cause any (performance) issue I am fine for now
