eclipse ADT slowdown and error

Question

after updating my ADT to the latest version, i am having frequent slowdowns and crashes..

lately this error happens more frequently than not. i had to force quit it resulting to unsaved activities..

i have already close all projects/libraries that isn't in use, its still slowing down even if there is only one project that is opened.

should i reinstall eclipse? what would happen to all of my projects and libraries? this is my first eclipse and this is the first time that this happened to me...

Answer 1

Change Target SDK in your manifest to 18 for the time being to avoid the crashes. Issue is with android-19. Wait for another update before switching back.

Answer 2

1. Remove all errors and warnings from your layouts.
2. Make sure you are running the eclipse in admin mode (windows users)

3. Go to your eclipse folder location -> open eclipse.ini file then change.

   -Dosgi.requiredJavaVersion=1.6 -Xms256m-Xmx512m

to

-Dosgi.requiredJavaVersion=1.6-Xms512m-Xmx1024m

this may help you a little bit.
