Hi, |

my memory is a bit hazy on this, but I believe i once had similar |
| 11 |
problem with azureus and sun's jvm (and blackdown's i think). The |
| 12 |
problem was basically that java has a maximum memory pool size set to 64 |
| 13 |
MB. You can change it with java -Xmxn, where n could be 128m for 128 |
| 14 |
Megabytes (see `man java` for the details). For azureus there is a file |
| 15 |
~/.azureus/gentoo.config where you can add parameters for the jvm to the |
| 16 |
environment var JAVA_OPTIONS. Maybe it works similarily in eclipse/tomcat. |

While doing a short google i also found these: |

In the posts regarding eclipse someone mentions adding the parameter |
| 23 |
-XX:MaxPermSize=128M to eclipse.ini. Unfortunately i cannot verify all |
| 24 |
of this as i do not use eclipse or tomcat, so YMMV :) |
