调试NetBeans模块的OutOfMemory / PermGen错误

Question

I've been developing a couple of NetBeans 7 modules on OSX with little problem. However, when I go to debug the modules, it opens up a new NetBeans instance for debugging purposes and after a few minutes of use I get OutOfMemory and PermGen exceptions. How can I avoid these when debugging? It's to the point that actually debugging is pointless, and I'm forced to "Run" the code instead. Where can I increase the memory allocated to NetBeans when debugging? Thanks!

Try looking at http://performance.netbeans.org/howto/jvmswitches/ . In particular, –J-XX:MaxPermSize=192m is worth a try.
