Unhandled event loop exception

[bendensmore]

I keep randomly getting this error and it locks up eclipse completely for about 3-4 minutes. Once this happens several times I eventually am forced to restart eclipse. Here is what's in the error log. Does anyone know how this can be fixed? It's making it extremely difficult to get much done.

Thanks,

Ben

Is this the plugin or standalone install?  It appears you are running out of memory.  You could try increasing the amount of heap space in the eclipse.ini file.  You would adjust the -Xms and -Xmx settings.  See http://wiki.eclipse.org/Eclipse.ini

I don't see how it can be a memory issue. I modified the eclipse.ini previous to this issue to the following:

-vmargs

-Xms256m

-Xmx512m

-XX:PermSize=128m

-XX:MaxPermSize=512m

The issue seems to pop up as soon as Builder tries to do some sort of look up. I was just in the middle of typing entityLoad() and as soon as it tried to bring up the list of my ORM entities it hung.

[Sean_Coyne-cKxAXa]

The stack trace indicates that it is running out of heap memory.  Specifically:

java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space

however, you have it set at 512mb which should be plenty of memory, so it may be another issue

[bendensmore]

I think it ends up running out of memory because something in the plugin is spinning out of control and ends up eating all the memory and causes the Java Heap error. Builder hangs for several minutes and then that message shows up in the log.

if you can find a reproducible test case, you could submit it as a bug. sorry I can't be more help.
