Startup no splash and very slow after Oxygen upgrade [message #1767362]

Hi,

I had a Neon.3 oomph based install which now upgraded to Oxygen. Since the upgrade:

- No splash screen when I launch eclipse
- It takes a long time till the workbench shows up, more than 5 minutes. I am not even sure why it comes up eventually.

I know it's hard to tell, but maybe there are some debug flags I could set to check what's up?

So, I cleaned the bundle pool with the installer's bundle pool manager ui. I had about 30k unused IUs which took over 2 hours to delete. Now the workbench starts as desired, but still no splash, which is minor, but I still wonder.. Eclipse.ini has
-product
org.eclipse.epp.package.committers.product
-showsplash
org.eclipse.epp.package.common

What's the value of osgi.splashPath in eclipse/configuration/configuration.ini? Is it like this: osgi.splashPath=platform\:/base/plugins/org.eclipse.platform or is it a "file:" URI and does it point to a file that exits?

That's good. We've written logic to ensure it's in this form, so at least that has kicked it. I can't think of any other reason why the splash screen wouldn't come up. Sorry...

Do you know what 'interaction' there is between the Splash and the Workspace chooser dialog? I still don't know what's going on, but sometimes I feel that it's just the workspace chooser that is somehow invisible. This is Windows 10.

Now that I got Oxygen.1 the spash shows up again and startup is normal.

Still happening from time to time, I think now it might be related to https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=522662

It just happenes again. I refactored the targlets in my setup a bit and since I redirect oomph to use that refactored model it failed at resolving (because I messed up the refactor). I commented the redirection in eclipse.ini and restarted. Now the splash shows without progress bar, just hanging there. Here is a stacktrace for future investigation. I don't know if this happens at all startups and most of the time it's just fast, of if that execution path just happens because I failed to resolve the target during last session.

I know I've seen a PDE bug opened that various things cause PDE to try to resolve the target platform so if you shutdown with an unresolved TP, that can be a problem during startup. But looking at your stack trace doesn't tell me much about what's really happening that's so expensive...
