Is it true that eclipse can consume 900's of thousands kB of virtual memory?

Bug Description
I've 1 GB of RAM and often get eclipse killed for out-of-memory. dmesg said:
Killed process 2012 (eclipse) total-vm:982480kB, anon-rss:241176kB, file-rss:1112kB
Does eclipse really need 982480kB RAM or is it a bug? Besides eclipse-platform, I also installed Eclipse ADT plugin and Subclipse.

I'm sorry it ought to be eclipse-platform, but I don't know how to update my report.
