How much free memory?  How big is your Application?  Do you have any other 
applications running at the same time?  I find that with intellij, my application, and 
exceed, I run about 450 megabytes of swap used.  We about about 1200 classes.  
You have 2000.  I would guess you need about 600 megabytes of swap for a 
minimal configuration, and more if you run other applications, or if your java app 
uses a lot of memory.
