That's very strange - have you tried restartting Eclipse? How about
increasing the JVM's
memory limits (the -Xmx/-Xms flags)?
When Eclipse runs out of memory, I can't restart it because it crashes
with an java.lang.OutOfMemoryError. That's why I reboot my machine.
As for increasing the memory limits, once Eclipse runs out of memory, no
amount of memory flag tweaking will make Eclipse run again until I
reboot the machine.
In general - a program shouldn't cause the system to require a reboot
just by hogging memory.
I agree. However, since I'm using an earlier version of the kernel, I'm
suspecting a kernel problem. But that's my guess.
After reading what you wrote above I agree - it sounds like a kernel
memory leak. Do you have statistics about the kernel memory usage (e.g.
vmstat)?
