You need to modify the -XmsAm and -XmxBm parameters in eclipse.ini so that they are large enough. When you will see these parameters, the default will be -Xms40m and -Xmx384m. Increase the integer values to something like Xms512 and -Xmx512m and restart eclipse to see if this helps.

eclipse.ini is located at /etc/eclipse.ini in Ubuntu (assuming you installed Eclipse from the Ubuntu repositories).

There are two ways first is same as written above and the second one is you can change the heap space in the android map app itself as shown below.
