I imported a fairly large C++ project. I received a couple out of memory errors when the project was being parsed. The failure looks to occur around a .h file with inline x86 assembly.

Did you really used Eclipse Importer plugin for importing? Anyway exception comes from cnd. Reassigning.
In a few weeks we will be releasing our beta3 build (concurrent with the NetBeans 5.5 release). There are *significant* improvements and fixes wrt memory usage (our tests show we're using about 20-25% as much memory in beta3 as we did in beta2). So please retry this with beta2 and let us know if you still have a problem. I'll assign the issue, but its most likely already fixed. (Alexander, please just track until beta3 is released and see if rwalsh responds, thx)
Active memory set use has been reduced sharply with NetBeans C/C++ Dev Pack 5.5.1 through the use of a new repository infrastructure. Testing shows that 256MB is sufficient to run even very large applications. The NetBeans C/C++ Dev Pack 5.5.1 release notes will recommend setting the Java heap through the -J-Xmx argument to at least 256 Mb This defect is closed.
