Assuming the same console settings are used for debug you have to edit idea.properties and restart:
#----------------------------------------------------------------------- # This option controls console cyclic buffer: keeps the console output size not higher than the specified buffer size (Kb). Older lines are deleted. # In order to disable cycle buffer use idea.cycle.buffer.size=disabled idea.cycle.buffer.size=1024
After upgrading to IDEA 10, i had to revisit this issue, which i'd long ago forgotten about.
Regarding an old comment in another thread re: improving IDEA's performance as a justification for removing the setting from the GUI - the console (and thus my run & debug sessions) actually runs faster with a larger buffer, perhaps because it's not flushing the console as it's written to.

idea.cycle.buffer.size=1024
This should really be a property configured from the GUI don't you think?
I have a feeling you won't see that anytime soon.
