Performance...Wildy Variant! [message #265303] Tue, 07 October 2008 15:19 Go to next message
Eclipse UserFriend
I'm building a servlet...nothing fancy.

I have a P4 with 4Gigs of memory.

Often I'm running nothing but Eclipse.

Sometimes, things go fast...about 30 percent of the time.

Other times, Eclipse will grind to a near halt, taking 50 percent of CPU
just to do something simple like save a file! Breakpoints will take
tens of seconds to be hit (other times, instantly).

Is there something going on in the background that I'm not aware of that's
sapping the speed of Eclipse?

John,

The details here can be useful for tracking what all the threads are up

I've heard of issues like validators that run in the background and try
to access URLs that are blocked by the firewall as one example of
something that might badly degrade performance...

Just a reminder: the Java VM won't take all of your memory, just the
amount you specified at startup. If this is a rather small amount lots
of garbage collections will happen. I use 512M for a normal PDE
Eclipse.
