Just edit /etc/eclipse.ini and set the 
--launcher.XXMaxPermSize and -Xmx384m
to something meaningful for you. JVM can allocate more memory than a predefined 
value which can be controlled by startup parameters. This is what we do in 
eclipse.ini but we can not set this to something really big because people can 
use eclipse for things that even require less than the current settings.
