OutOfMemory Error from eclipse

I know there are hundreds of blog entries covering this. Here is another.

I followed the general scriptures and set the values in my eclipse.ini file. Currently mine looks like this:

-showsplash
com.genuitec.myeclipse.product
--launcher.XXMaxPermSize 256m
-vmargs
-Xms128m
-Xmx1024m
-Duser.language=en
-XX:PermSize=128M
-Xss2m
-XX:MaxPermSize=256M

However I was still getting OutOfMemory errors when trying to run an ant test coverage task. Why ?

I solved the problem, or should I say I have not seen the problem since I did the following:

In eclipse go to:
Window->Preferences->Java->Installed JREs.

Select the JRE that you are using and select 'Edit'.

Then add the following to the 'Default VM Aguments'
-Xms128m -Xmx1024m -XX:MaxPermSize=256m
