[eclipse-dev] PermGen issues on Windows

Hi everyone,

I just wanted to make you aware of bug [1].  It appears Oracle has changed the Vendor Tag on their VM (from Sun or Oracle), and Eclipse was using this tag to determine if the MaxPermSize should be increased.  Without this increased PermSize, you will get a very unstable Eclipse install on Windows.  Andrew and Konstantin have some more information on this at [2] and [3].

Cheers,
