I did not need to up my MaxPermSize to solve my problem. I am using Eclipse 3.2.

Funny. I had the same problem this week. Eclipse was running slow then crashed a couple times. I checked my .log file and sure enough, I was running out of PermGen space. I made the same “tweak” you mentioned and haven’t had a problem since.

hi there,

which version of eclipse are you using.

did adding "-vmargs -XX:MaxPermSize=" make a difference ? That should NOT make a difference in terms of running out of memory. It should make a difference in the duration of your GC pauses and the the slickness of your app.

BR,
