April 16, 2014 //  by Krishna Srinivasan//  Leave a Comment

There is setting in the Eclipse to change this default settings by removing the local history or set the preferred days and file size as the limit to maintain the local history.

Local History Settings in Eclipse

To navigate to the local history settings, use the following path.

Windows -> Preferences -> General -> Workspace -> Local History

By selecting the check box “Limit History Size”, you can update the settings. If you remove the selection, it will be saved for ever it would reduce the eclipse performance. The files are stored in the local disk itself. Look at the screenshot of the window for update the settings.
