Hi,

I am using MyEclipse Blue 7.0 in combination with MagicDraw 16. From time to time I get a warning that is called “Available Memory Is Low”. The whole text says:
“myEclipse has detected that less than 5% of the 32 MB Code Cache (non-heap memore) 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”.

So I had a look at my parameters and they are ok as you can see from my configruation details. What can I do to solve this problem? Until now this was just an info with no negative results..but who knows..

greets, sehlerding

<!– The information you posted was not helpful. Can you paste the information available under MyEclipse > Installation Summary > Installation Details–>

Can you go to MyEclipse > Installation Summary > Installation Details here for me. Also, do you have these arguments in the ini file?

[sehlerding83]

Hi,

yes these arguments are in the ini file too. Afterwards the wanted details.

Greets,

You can increase his perm-gen and heap space to avoid this — it’s likely that both MagicDraw and MyEclipse together just use up a lot of memory, so you can increase the memory and should be OK. The memory can be increased in the ini file. These arguments need to be increased:-

-XX:PermSize=64m
-XX:MaxPermSize=128m

[sehlerding83]

I increased these arguments but that doesn’t take effect.
So Is there another possiblity to decrease the usage of memory? How can MyEclipse be configured to run a little “faster”?

[Loyal Water]

You can go to Window > Prefs > General > Capabilities > Advanced menu and uncheck the bits that you dont use. That should speed up things a little bit.

Also, please adjust the max perm size argument up to 256mb, that’s the eclipse default for 3.4

Hi,

after disabling some features the performance is much better than before. Thanks for your help.

Your welcome.
