Eclipse and Java 1.5 on Mac OS X

I feel Eclipse much lighter running under Java 1.5. If you have Java 1.5 in your Mac it is easy to configure Eclipse to use that virtual machine. Edit the file Eclipse.app/Contents/Info.plist and where it reads

<key>Eclipse</key>
  <array>
    <string>-startup</string><string>../../../startup.jar</string>
    ...

insert this couple of values:

<key>Eclipse</key>
  <array>
    <string>-vm</string>
    <string>/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.5/Commands/java</string>
    <string>-startup</string><string>../../../startup.jar</string>
    ...
