At the end of the building process message is showing as "Build Success" .But after that line below error msg is printing. Fatal Error : Permgern space Once this exception comes ,every time whole Jenkins is getting hanged i.e no corresponding page of Jenkins even if dash board is not opening.

Below are some of the possible steps I tried to solve- (1)In POM.XML below tag added. attached image link for Changed permgern space configuration in POM.xml (2)Set JAVA_OPTS in enviroment variable. attached image link for setting enviromental variables
But,unfortunately none of them working.Still issue is there. After searching some where,I got to know -XX:PermSize=256m -XX:MaxPermSize=512m declaration will resolve the issue.But I am not sure Where and How to give the above declaration.
Guys,Plz go through the above links I attached and let me know If any thing I did wrong. Any help will be appreciated.
