If I have no interest in developing Eclipse plug-ins, is it possible
to run Eclipse WITHOUT the plug-in-development component? What about
other components - say, for example, I don't use CVS as a SCM, can
I unload that too?
I guess I'd like to know is how to configure the 'slimmest' Eclipse
footprint for Java development for my slightly-aged-under-powered-under-
memoried home computer
Thanks in advance,
MWN

If you never use them, they are never loaded. Eclipse is just aware of those
plugins, but not actually loading them. It will load them only when you use
them. There is a limited number of plugins that are loaded on startup
they are all extending org.eclipse.ui.startup extension point.
you can probably remove those plugins alltogether by deleting appropriate
plugin directories and make sure that no other plugins depend on the plugin
you are moving.
