Whn I used to run 4.1.1 I found that I had to allocate a max of 2gig of memory to MyEclipse, otherwise the performace was terrible. Since I upgraded to 5.1.1 I tried running with just 1gig to see if things have improved, but I am still experiencing poor performance.
My problem is that with 5.1.1, when I try to allocate 2gig of memory by modifying the eclipse.ini file, MyEclipse won’t start. I receive the error, “Could not create Java virtual machine” along with a dump of the startup parameters.
Is there any way for me to use a different JRE to start MyEclipse? I’m hoping this will allow me to allocate more memory.
