Jenkins - Exception in thread "main" java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: GC overhead limit exceeded

Question

I have configured the TFS repository in jenkins for maven build, while doing checkout i have been observing the below error for every new checkin it has been running 30 to 40 min finally giving the below error and continuing build, other then that if i broke/kill and re-trigger the build its going fine without an issue.

I have tried the below steps but is not helping out.

1.

export JAVA_OPTS="-XX:-UseGCOverheadLimit -Xms1024m -Xmx2048m -XX:MaxPermSize=1024m" --> set the JAVA_OPTS in catalina.sh.

2.

export JAVA_ARG="-Xmx1048m -XX:MaxPermSize=512m" --> set the JAVA_ARG in tomcat setenv.sh

3.

export CATALINA_OPTS="-Djava.awt.headless=true -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8
-server -Xms1536m -Xmx1536m
-XX:NewSize=256m -XX:MaxNewSize=256m -XX:PermSize=256m
-XX:MaxPermSize=256m -XX:+DisableExplicitGC" --> set CATALINA_OPTS in setenv.sh

ERRRO logs:

The above issue got resolved after upgraded TFS plugin in jenkins(version-1.654). I have upgraded from TFS 1.12 to 3.20
