I've got -Xms128m -Xmx200m and it barely helps. I would agree it is getting more sluggish. I'd like to know what the heck it is storing in its 128M that I see in the lower right hand corner. Worse, 99% of the time, I am just *editing* files. Even here, it pauses sometimes inexplicably, for long periods of time. My files are never more than 20k a piece, if that. And I only keep 5-8 open at any given time.
This is a beatiful product, but it is approaching a point where it's got so many features that its basic mission--to simply edit files--is getting harder and harder to do. Add in the "caret offset by one character due to tabs" and editing some files is nearly impossible. For my IDE to require more memory than Weblogic is sad. Still, I have hope that they recognize this and will tackle the issue.
