Build Identifier: 20110916-0149

Software keeps crashing while opening files in workbench. Error pops up showing eclipse.ini file. 

I've tried adding more memory via the ini files (up to 1GB) and still it keeps crashing.

I'm using Windows 64bit. I've installed the 64 and 32 bit versions and I keep getting the same problem. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Eclipse
2. Choose file from project explorer
3. Open. Can freeze when editing files or just opening them

Check whether there's a crash log. This is normally at the location of the eclipse.exe, JRE, current dir or home dir.
