Then why does the problem go away when i stop and then restart
eclipse?
My guess is heap usage and the frequency that the garbage collector
is running. After a while of usage the heap may be generally more
full and therefore collections might be triggered more often and
there may be more objects to collect.
There are GC related threads that run at too high a priority prior to
1.5.0_06 (at least on Suns implementation), as Robert pointed out.
Restarting would give eclipse a fresh heap to grow into.
