Hi!
If you are right and each eclipse m2e project needs 2MB I may have a problem.
Actually we have 167 (!) projects in the workspace. With mvn eclipse:eclipse
this is ok, eclipse needs about 450-500 MB (I looked up the usage with the MS
Windows Taskmanager). With m2e eclipse uses more than 730 MB. In both cases the
usage increases while working, thus with m2e eclipse needs something more than 1
GB which is too much for our environment (local XP workstation with jboss, db
tool, browser etc.).
Does it mean that m2e isn't recommended for such a big amount of projects?
Best regards
Björn
