Eclipse: Boost performance with Memory setup

November 24th, 2009 by jeremychone

Eclipse can become quite slow, especially if you have plugins like AJDT installed. Boosting the memory can help. Edit your eclipse.ini.

Original eclipse.ini

....
--launcher.XXMaxPermSize
256m
-vmargs
-Xms40m
-Xmx256m

Update eclipse.ini

...
--launcher.XXMaxPermSize
512m
-vmargs
-Xms100m
-Xmx512m
