How to fix Groovy Grails Tool Suite 3 extreme memory usage

Groovy Grails Tool Suite always takes more than 3000M of memory. Even at start.

Heap status show about 2500M

How can I fix this, it's not supposed to take that much. I always have to restart my IDE because it's too slow.

I've already upgraded my GGTS.ini:

-Xms320m -Xmx3072m -XX:MaxPermSize=2048m

Solution
    1. Close unused project
    2. Deactivate auto-build
    3. Recreate your workspace (Back it up first!)
