[news.eclipse.technology.memory-analyzer] Could not parse big heap file

[michael.wang@xxxxxxx (Michael W)]

I have big heap dump file, nearly 3G. And I would like to use MAT to find 
memory issue.

In XP window:
I downloaded MemoryAnalyzer-Incubation-0.8.0.20090617-win32.win32.x86.zip  
and try to parse the heap file. 
But eclipse gives me out of memory issue due to big heap file. 
I can only increase ?Xmx to 1400m in MemoryAnalyzer.ini.  If over 1400m, I 
got 
popup window indicating JVM terminated. Exit code=-1

I bet window eclipse can only support less than 1400m memory.

Then I try Unix version:

It gave following error when I try to use ParseHeapDump.sh <heapdumpfile>
