Hey I am just observing this thread ...
On the jre when you start eclipse i belive you can set the amount of
memory allowed to be used by java ...
After googling "man java" i found this in the man page ...
*-Xmx*/n/ Specifies the maximum size, in bytes, of the memory allocation
pool. This value must be a multiple of 1024 greater than 2 MB.
Append the letter *k* or *K* to indicate kilobytes or the letter
*m*
or *M* to indicate megabytes. The default value is 64MB. Exam-
ples:
-Xmx83886080
-Xmx81920k
-Xmx80m
Not sure this will help ... but if you start eclipse with a "large" number you
may be ok is my guess ...
Keep in mind I am just a bystandard ...

ps I would assume turning off oxygen features such as "auto completion", etc
... would allow a document not to need as much memory ... but i have been wrong before
... you could try crippling oxygen in your options ... again this is a guess ...

Dear Timothy,
In order to edit it Oxygen keeps the whole file in memory.
The amount of memory needed to open a file is several times larger
than the file size when opening it in Text mode and is lower when
opening it in Grid or Author mode.
Also the Tree Editor available in Oxygen has a much smaller memory
footprint.
It also depends on the file structure and whether it has many long
lines.
You can find out how much memory is available for Oxygen by opening
the About dialog and reading the "JVM memory used - Total" field.
The standard total memory setting in Oxygen should be more than
enough to open an 11 MB file.
If you give us access to the file maybe we could take a look at it
and see if we can improve anything in the Oxygen memory usage.
If the archived version of the file is above 1 MB maybe you could
post a link with it.
Ya, I understand all of that. But you seem to think it is fine
that an 11 meg file can't be opened. 11 meg! I don't need an excuse
for why an application running on a laptop with 4 gig of memory can't
edit an 11 meg file. For pete' sake, stop and look at your friggin
response! It's an 11 meg file.
