I'm having trouble with Eclipse routinely crapping out on me (and being generally sluggish) and I was wondering if anyone could give me any insight. The message that gets thrown is "Unable to create new native thread." at which point I'm prompted to restart Eclipse. This happens 5 or so times a day.
I'm using Ecliipse Helios Service Release 2 (with Flash Builder plugin) on:
Windows Vista Business
Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo T7500 @ 2.20 GHz
Memory (RAM): 4.00 GB
System Type: 32-bit Operating System
My eclipse.ini settings which were stolen from this thread: What are the best jvm settings for eclipse:
-startup
plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.1.1.R36x_v20101122_1400.jar
--launcher.library
plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.win32.win32.x86_1.1.2.R36x_v20101222
-product
org.eclipse.epp.package.jee.product
--launcher.defaultAction
openFile
-showsplash
org.eclipse.platform
-vm
C:/jdk1.6.0_25/jre/bin/client/jvm.dll
-vmargs
-Dosgi.requiredJavaVersion=1.6
-Declipse.p2.unsignedPolicy=allow

Thanks for any help!
edit:
@normalocity - the error literally just happened (Unhandled event loop exception), this is after adjusting my eclipse.ini (I changed Xss to 1m, MaxPermSize to 384m, Xms to 512). Here is the additional info you asked for, exception stack trace:
