While we're on the eclipse.ini subject, who knows what the appropriate -Xmx512M
setting would be for any machine? Does it have a max value that's OS and
hardware dependent? Does it matter if you set it higher than that?
I'm using -Xmx680M purely because a colleague claimed that's the max value you
can use on a machine with 2 gigs RAM. I never checked it out.

I am trying the new version and get a message that I must add a vm

here is my ini file:
-vm C:/Program Files/Java/jdk1.6.0_01/bin/javaw.exe
-vmargs
-Xms512m
-Xmx1024m
shouldn't that take care of it ? or will I see the message anyway,
even if the switch is right?
First of all, this message is warning you that Maven won't work
properly because you don't have JDK around, but if you don't want to see
that warning next time, you can simply check the checkbox on that
warning dialog.
As for your eclipse.ini file, it is not quite correct. Here is what I
have in mine. Note that default JVM MaxPermSize value is not good for
running Eclipse and need to be increased (e.g. eclipse.ini from Eclipse
3.3 is suggesting 256m value, but it usually it is too much).
-showsplash
org.eclipse.platform
-vm
C:\jdk1.6.0_03\bin\java.exe
-vmargs
-Xms256m
-Xmx512m
-XX:PermSize=32m
-XX:MaxPermSize=160m
Also see the following FAQ entry -

BTW, if you haven't noticed, you can actually click on the blue
hyperlinks in that warning dialog to get more information.
