    When running the MyEclipse Workbench on my Macintosh (OS 10.4.8) I occasionally get the following message:

    “Available Memory is Low
    MyEclipse has detected that less than 5% of the 64MB of Perm Gen (Non-heap) space remains.

    It is strongly recommended that you exit and restart MyEclipse with new virtual machine memory parameters to increase this memory. Failure to do so can result in data loss.

    The recommended Eclipse memory parameters are
    eclipse.exe -vmargs -Xms128M -Xmx512M -XX:PermSize=64M -XX:MaxPermSize=128M”

    How do I set these configuration parameters on the Macintosh application?

    Thanks,

    Eric.

    Eric,
    If you go find your eclipse exceutable, then right-click and do Show Contents, you can drill down into the folder then into I believe the MacOS folder there should be an eclipse.ini file. In that file you can edit the arguments for startup. The default -Xms and -Xmx arguments are already the ones above I think, it’s just they are missing the permgen space ones.
