I think a higher minimum is in order.  There's actually a bug open at
eclipse.org (I don't have the number handy) about this.  IIRC, the
platform team didn't want to change the default since they're not
shipping an IDE :)  There were sensible values in the bug, though.

FWIW, when I use IcedTea I use:

-Xms512m
-Xmx512m
-XX:PermSize=128m
-XX:MaxPermSize=128m

But I have 2 GB of memory.
