Slow profiling with Eclipse TPTP


I've developing an application in Eclipse 3.6 and am trying to get some simple execution profiling statistics with TPTP (basically just the execution time analysis).

However, the profiling is running so slowing that it's barely possible to get a successful run, Eclipse sometimes crashes with OutOfMemoryErrors and I highly doubt that any of the execution time statistics are anything close to what I normally get. I guess it's running about 100th of normal speed, using 100% of a CPU.

Any ideas as to what could be causing this and how I could fix it?

System is Core i7 980 running Windows 7 64-bit, JVM is Sun JDK 1.6.20 in case that is relevant


Solution

  • Did you try with this eclipse.ini file for some optimization and hopefully and better runtime experience?.

    Note: keep the Java1.6u20, or make sure ti use the 1.6u21 build 7 (not build 6).
    That way, you will ensure the --launcher.XXMaxPermSize parameter (that you should set to an high value in order to facilitate your session) will be correctly recognized.
