Hi all,
I'm working on a large-ish (~1500 class / 200 KLOC) project. I'm using Eclipse, and while doing some relatively light refactoring work I'm getting regular out of memory ("Do you want to exit the workbench?") errors.
I have automatic rebuilding of workspace on, which is certainly hogging CPU but I'm not sure whether it affects memory use. The refactoring I do generates a lot of compile errors, and the errors change frequently; this seems to cause the automatic rebuilding some stress.
So my questions, which are hopefully easy to answer:
1- Are there any obvious settings for reducing memory use? Would turning off automatic rebuilding help?
2- How can I increase the amount of memory allocated to Eclipse? It peaks at around 140Mb at the moment.
Cheers,
--Tim
PS, try running Eclipse, Weblogic and Firebird with 512 RAM...I'm learning zen-like patience
