Error in loading maven artifacts with eclipse juno and java 8 installed

Question

I have installed Eclipse Juno and integrated Maven, but when I try to create a Maven project, it is showing the error, Retrieving archetypes: GC overhead limit exceeded . Before I had Juno installed, I Kepler installed and used the same Maven and it worked fine.

Answer 1

You might have lost your JVM tuning around heap size with new installation

edit your eclipse.ini

and modify the values below to change Java's initial & maximum memory allocation

-vmargs
-Xms512mm
-Xmx2g

Provide appropriate values as per your environment.
