Hi. I am trying to install Spring framework in my eclipse ganymede through an update site http://springide.org/updatesite. But when it updates an error will occur in my ide which says that an out of memory error occurred.

+1  A: 

Try to raise the memory settings in the eclipse.ini.

I am using

-Xms512m
-Xmx1024m
-XX:MaxPermSize=512m

I already edited the ini file but I still get the same error... and even though I have 1Gb of ram.... here's my current ini file-showsplashorg.eclipse.platform--launcher.XXMaxPermSize512M-frameworkplugins\org.eclipse.osgi_3.4.2.R34x_v20080826-1230.jar-vmargs-Dosgi.requiredJavaVersion=1.5-Xms512m-Xmx1024m-XX:MaxPermSize=512m

You have only 1gig of ram in your machine? If that's the case then you might consider upgrading to at least 2gig ram. Eclipse is sometimes pretty greedy and your OS and other running apps consume their share of the memory too, which may lead to our out of memory problem.

ah ok... So it is really a hardware problem... but i tried pasting this in the ini...-XX:CompileCommand=exclude,org/eclipse/jdt/internal/compiler/lookup/ParameterizedMethodBinding,<init>
