How to reduce Eclipse's memory usage?

The memory usage of Eclipse 3.4 is through the roof to the point where it's becoming an issue.

I have a simple BlackBerry project loaded and the usage skyrockets to nearly 400 MB, sometimes higher. Is there something that can be done to bring it down?

Remove +UseG1GC option from eclipse.ini. I've read from here that It is only used for araound 6GB heap memory.

Try disabling your eclipse plugins. Eclipse was hogging half of my of my memory when I had the saros plugin open.
