Re: [m2e-users] Eclipse Running Out of PermGen Space

Hi,
Default is 64M IIRC, setting it to 256M should be enough.
Also, Java 1.8 removed the notion of PermGen space completely, it will dynamically allocated its new Metaspace from native memory.

I'm in the process of updating to a 1.6 milestone build.  Do you have any recommendation for what to set the permgen to in the eclipse.ini file?

Eclipse JVM needs to load the same classes as command line build plus all the eclipse code. It is expected to use much much more permgen memory. You can increase permgen memory in eclipse.ini.

Having said that, there was a slow memory leak in m2e, which could cause permgen oome on very long running eclipse instances. m2e basically never released maven plugin classloaders, so if you change plugin versions in your projects or use snapshot plugins, eclipse eventually ran out of memory. This particular problem is fixed in m2e 1.6, so you may want to try recent snapshot to see if it works better for you.
