I made a youtube clip that slows you a program that takes 16 seconds to read a file of 1000 strings. However since I am new I am not able to post links.

This is what my eclipse.ini file looks like:

-startup
../../../plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.3.0.v20130327-1440.jar
--launcher.library
../../../plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.cocoa.macosx.x86_64_1.1.200.v20140116-2212
-product
org.eclipse.epp.package.standard.product
--launcher.defaultAction
openFile
-showsplash
org.eclipse.platform
--launcher.XXMaxPermSize
2048m
--launcher.defaultAction
openFile
--launcher.appendVmargs
-vmargs
-Dosgi.requiredJavaVersion=1.7
-XstartOnFirstThread
-Dorg.eclipse.swt.internal.carbon.smallFonts
-XX:PermSize=512m
-XX:MaxPermSize=1024m
-Xms512m
-Xmx850m
-Xdock:icon=../Resources/Eclipse.icns
-XstartOnFirstThread
-Dorg.eclipse.swt.internal.carbon.smallFonts


I have a 2.8 GHz Intel Core i7
8GB 1333 MHz DDR3
500 GB SSD

Version 10.9.3

My iMac has a 3.6GHz processor and it FLY's with eclipse but my macbook pro is SO slow. However it used to be really fast and one day it just stopped. I did add an add-on (OSGI framework) but that should not slow it down this much. Please help, it is so annoying.

Surely you can think of a way to post a URL getting around this restriction.

Is this Eclipse you're showing, or a different application you've written?

it is eclipse running a program very slow.

I made a program that reads a file of 1000 strings and prints them onto the console.

My iMac can do this is 1 second my Macbook takes 16 seconds. This is not normal and I do not know why it just changed on me like this.

Maybe you don't realize this, but Eclipse does not actually run your applications. It launches a JVM (that you specify) with parameters to run your application.
