Version: 3.7.0
Build id: I20110208-0800

Running the JDT debug test suite using Sun/IBM 1.6 64bit VMs and the Eclipse 64Bit build I had to add the arg -XX:MaxPermSize=128m to get the tests to pass.

This is not required on its 32bit counter-part. We should investigate why.

The 64 bit VMs simply use more memory. The memory requirements were adjusted a while back, closing worksforme
