    Hi,

    I would like to update myeclipse.ini file to increase the permsize & also point to jdk6. however after I update the file, my updates are not reflected under the configurations under help-about myeclipse blue edition-configuration.
    Can you please let me know how to accomplish this task as I am looking for increasing myEclipse blue performance to boot & build application.

    -vm
    C:\Java\jdk1.6.0_23\bin\javaw.exe
    -vmargs
    -Xmx768m
    -XX:MaxPermSize=320m

    Thanks,
    Srinivas

    I am trying to reduce MyEclipse Blue startup time & also reduce build time by updating permsize & pointing to jdk6 for javaw.exe in myeclipse.ini file. let me know if this can be accomplished with myeclipse.ini configuration file.

    Srinivas,

    MyEclipse start up time will be dependent on many factors such as your workspace size, validators, projects size, third party plugins, etc.

    Try changing the memory settings -Xmx and -XX:MaxPermSize values in myeclipse.ini file (Check this FAQ for more information). You can also modify your JDK version in the myeclipse.ini file by changing the -vm value. Once you modify the values in the myeclipse.ini file, restart your MyEclipse for the changes to be affected.

    Let us know if you have any further questions.

    I was getting out of memory errors when working in the MyEclipse Blue IDE (on Windows) so decided I would try my hand at editing the .ini file, something I’ve done with success a half dozen to ten times in other versions of Eclipse. However when I did so all that would happen is that the splash screen would show for a second or two and then disappear without otherwise indicating any kind of error.

    Bella,

    Sorry that you are seeing this issue.

    Can you please give us some more information?

    1. Which version of MyEclipse Blue are you working with? Please share the Installation Details from MyEclipse > Installation Summary > Installation Details.

    2. Did you install any third party plugins ? If you are working with a large workspace and if you have third party plugins then you might need more memory. Please check this FAQ for more information.

    3. Does the IDE allow you to select the workspace ? If yes then send us the .log file which is located at <workspace dir>/.metadata/.log for further investigation. Also share the myeclipse.ini file contents with us.

    4. Please check if the issue persists on a new workspace.
