I have suffered over several releases with a problem with Eclipse locking up/hanging/busy forever when opening projects with thousands of files in complex directories with mix of C/C++/php/ruby/javascript/etc... files
35,603 Files, 2,365 Folders totalling about 7GB (this is actually only half the total project)
This is legacy code developed over years so I can't reorganize...
I can "usually" get a project opened and it works fine over many days. However, anytime there is a change in opened projects (close one version tree or open another) I will usually get into a situation where eclipse is unusable.
If I just open the project and try to expand the root level, it will lock up forever and become unresponsive.
If I open the project and then just exit eclipse it locks up on saving workspace with 'waiting for background task to complete" without showing any background task running.
I can lose many hours of work trying to get eclipse into a usable state. I've tried increasing java memory limits in eclipse.ini which does improve performance, but doesn't do anything about these hangs.
This is running on 64bit win7 (yes, with 64bit java) and project files are loaded over a mounted drive from a linux server (I can't change this and can't move them to the local file system). Workspace config is saved locally.
I tried attaching a dmp file from a lockup but even compressed it was 145MB
Any help would be appreciated.
