Fixing crashy Eclipse installations
I've been suffering permanent Eclipse crashes. Especially when developing with the WTP on Tomcat. I found that it just takes some tweakage on the eclipse.ini file to get rid of this noisy little OutOfMemoryException permGen fucker. Here it is, my eclipse.ini. It works like a charm for me.
-showsplash
org.eclipse.platform
--launcher.XXMaxPermSize
256M
-vmargs
-Dosgi.requiredJavaVersion=1.5
-Xms40m
-Xmx512m
-XX:PermSize=64m
-XX:MaxPermSize=128m

Thanks god I found your article. My shity eclipse installation was breaking down every 30 minutes. I looked up all the error messages on serveral pages and could’t find a proper soloution. Until now it works. Hopefully all crashes will be fixed.
