Tab switching slow in Eclipse on Mac OS X —15 September 2010

The fix:

  1. Find eclipse.ini file in the Eclipse installation.

  2. Edit/add the following values:

-Xms256m
-Xmx1024m
-Dosgi.requiredJavaVersion=1.6

The requiredJavaVersion=1.6 is the key, but adjusting the heap settings is probably also a good idea.
