    Tweak your maven options. Generally this is set in /etc/mavenrc, ${HOME}/.mavenrc, or your Windows environmental properties dialog box.

    export MAVEN_OPTS="-Xmx512M -XX:MaxPermSize=512M" 
    

    has worked for some, you might need to bump the numbers up (depending on your circumstance)

    The first option “-Xmx512M” configures maximum memory, while the second option “-XX:MaxPermSize=512M” allows PermGen space to grow as large as (in this case) the maximum memory.
