I used the built-in GWT compiler (2.5.0) in Eclipse 4.2.1. After a few hours compilation, I finally got the following error. Any suggestion will be greatly appreciated.

As a workaround, you can disable external workers and use only threads: launch your GWT Compiler process with -Dgwt.jjs.permutationWorkerFactory=com.google.gwt.dev.ThreadedPermutationWorkerFactory. It'll use a single thread by default, so you'll probably want to also use -Dgwt.jjs.maxThreads=4 (4 being picked relative to the number of cores on the machine)
