When typing in the JSF demo code and playing around with it, I got, serveral times, out of memory errors and had to close 4.0.3.

The shortcut I’m using to Start MyEclipse is:

“C:\Program Files\eclipse\eclipse.exe” -vm “C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_04\bin\javaw.exe” -vmargs -Xmx512M -Dosgi.splashLocation=”C:\Program Files\MyEclipse\eclipse\MyEclipseSplash.bmp”

Is this an already-identified problem that will be fixed in 4.1?

Thanks.

We aren’t currently aware of out of memory exceptions occuring when heaps are specified over 128m. What version of Eclipse are you using? How many projects are open in your workspce while you are working and how large are they? Bigger workspaces will consume more memory, we’ve had folks with 100s of open projects before, not realizing that was the cause of the problem.

Can you try a couple of additional vmargs:

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

Eclipse 3.1.1.
Only the tutorial project was open in MyEclipse.

Mork,
Please make the additions that Greg mention above, this is a situation many larger Eclipse products are starting to get into, needing to adjust the perm size. Exadel and NitroX have this issue as well.
