Title:
  Project Explorer crashes with out of memory

Status in eclipse package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When I start my eclipse it crashes with the following message:

  'Project Explorer' has encountered a problem.
  An internal error has occurred
  Details>>:
  An internal error has occurred.
  Java heap space

  Then I have the options to quit or to keep on working anyway. If I
  choose to keep on working there will be further errors stating that
  eclipse is OutOfMemory.

  I checked my system monitor and it says that eclipse always needs
  about 360mb of RAM.

  I tried to increase the memory using commandline arguments (eclipse
  -vmargs -Xms64m -Xmx1024m) or by changing the /etc/eclipse.ini. I also
  tried to increase the Perm-Memory, but none of these changes has any
  effect on the error or the RAM usage of eclipse.

  I use Ubuntu 11.10 64bit with eclipse from the repositorys. My java version is:
  java version "1.6.0_23"
  OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea6 1.11pre) (6b23~pre11-0ubuntu1.11.10)
  OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.0-b11, mixed mode)
