Make sure that you have Eclipse configured to use enough memory. Begin by specifying the starting amount of memory (-vmargs -Xms###m) in your Eclipse startup command line (e.g., the target field within a Windows shortcut) or eclipse.ini file (in your Eclipse root directory). If this is not specified, Eclipse’s starting amount of memory is quite small (only 40 MB). You should also specify the maximum amount of memory that Eclipse can use (-vmargs -Xmx###m) and the maximum amount of perm space available (-vmargs -XX:MaxPermSize=###m).
