wondering how much heap is used by eclipse? using the menu window > preferences there is a setting i can enable: “ show heap status “:

show heap status in eclipse

show heap status in eclipse

with this, i see the current status of the heap in the lower right corner of eclipse: the currently used amount of heap and the maximum of heap allocated:

heap status

heap status

there is as wall an icon to run the garbage collector manually.

with the status i can watch the memory consumption over time which gives me an indication if i feel that eclipse is using too much memory.

happy heaping :-)
