title: "Could not create the Java Virtual Machine" when increasing the -Xmx
body: <p>The eclipse on my work computer was working with VM argument -Xms40m and -Xmx512m and it is really slow and freezes a lot, I wanted to increase it to -Xmx1024m, but every time I did so I got the error "Could not create the Java Virtual Machine". </p>
  
  <p>The computer has 3.5GB RAM, WIN XP (32-bit), Java 1.6_18</p>
  
  <p>What could be the reason? Is it related to other arguments?</p>
  
  <p><strong>UPDATE:</strong>
  I changed the -vm argument so it will use the jvm.dll that comes with the jrockit JDK and I was able to increase the max heap size to 1024m.</p>
  
  <p>Also, on my home computer (WIN 7, 32-bit, 2GB RAM, java 1.7.0_21-b11), I was able to increase it 1024m as well.</p>
