title: java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: PermGen space (not the usual suspects!)
body: <p>The error occurs on this line in a jsp page!</p>
  
  <pre><code>    &lt;table:table name="sessionScope.users" sort="external" pagesize="50" id="user" class="list" 
      requestURI="/admin-users.html" partialList="true" size="sessionScope.fullListSize"&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I've tried increasing the perm gen max to 512m, using the methods found in other posts, both for the invocation of eclipse and the instance of Tomcat.</p>
  
  <p>Ok, so a bit more context is required:  THis is my dev system, running in eclipse, and pointing to a standalone instance of tomcat that is a server within Eclipse.  </p>
  
  <p>According to <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/473011/recurring-permgen-in-tomcat-6">Recurring &quot;PermGen&quot; in Tomcat 6</a>, I have the following in my eclipse.ini:</p>
  
  <pre><code>--launcher.XXMaxPermSize
  512m
  
  // ...
  
  -XX:MaxPermSize=512m
  -XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC
  -XX:+CMSPermGenSweepingEnabled
  -XX:+CMSClassUnloadingEnabled
  -Xms256m
  
  
  -Xmx512m
  </code></pre>
