Please, stop threaten you would commit suicide (it's neither funny
nor helpful). Try running a simple HelloWorld using -Xmx1024M and
see if the problem persists. If the JVM fails to load again, then
it is not Eclipse specific but specific to the environment you're
trying to start the JRE in. Check there's enough free physical RAM
to start the JRE using the given heap options.
