which version of eclipse are you using? use this in your eclipse.ini which resides in your eclipse install folder(where eclipse executable resides) -Xms40m -Xmx256m -XX:MaxPermSize=256m eclipse will use some 100-180 MB memory depending upon the kind of plugins you have loaded.. so if you dont have enough memory it will hang often. if you dont need plugins like j2ee plugin, EMF, etc,disable them.
options is available in Help>Software Updates, you can see a tree. from that select plugins that you dont need and right click and then select disable. restart when your are done. Eclipse is the best IDE I have ever used, (I 've been using it for years ).
