Monitoring and Modifying Memory Usage
 
Adjusting the Designer Memory Settings
As you work with Software AG Designer, background processes are constantly writing to system memory. Some processes can consume a considerable amount of memory while they are running. This can cause Designer to slow down or become unresponsive if its memory requirements approach or exceed the configured maximum.
Eclipse provides a heap status monitor function, and by default, this feature is enabled in Designer. The monitor appears in the status bar at the lower right of Designer:
The display shows the amount of memory in use and the total amount available. If the display frequently shows values near the configured maximum, consider increasing the maximum. For more information, see Adjusting the Designer Memory Settings.
If the display has been disabled, you can re-enable it by clicking Window > Preferences, selecting the General entry, and selecting the Show heap status option.
For more information about memory allocation in Eclipse, see the topic “Running Eclipse” in the Workbench User Guide online help (Workbench User Guide > Tasks > Running Eclipse).
