Eclipse out of memory when trying to launch Selendroid application

Question

I'm trying to implement an app following these instructions from Selendroid official website but I am not able to make it work. When I try to launch my app, Eclipse gets stucked in Launching 100% and I have to wait like 5-10 minutes until I can get it back. Here is the error:

If I take a look at Eclipse's Console I can see A BUNCH of errors similar to these:

[2014-12-26 00:53:35 - QualE] Dx warning: Ignoring InnerClasses attribute for an anonymous inner class
(org.apache.bcel.generic.InstructionList$1) that doesn't come with an
associated EnclosingMethod attribute. This class was probably produced by a
compiler that did not target the modern .class file format. The recommended
solution is to recompile the class from source, using an up-to-date compiler
and without specifying any "-target" type options. The consequence of ignoring
this warning is that reflective operations on this class will incorrectly
indicate that it is *not* an inner class.

How can I solve this problem?

Thanks in advance.
