I've been using Eclipse IDE for RCP since 2008. Latest version exhibits many freezing problems. I've experienced frequent and fatal IDE freezes when opening ANT buildfiles.
The following steps don't reproduce the total freeze I experience in my development environment, but anyway a lag is noticeable, and they trigger "UI freeze" warnings and other ugly message in the logs - and this, mind you, starting from a total clean installation.
My environment : Windows-7, Java 1.8.0_231, 64 bits.
I download eclipse-rcp-2020-06-R-win32-x86_64.zip , unpack, and run in with a new workspace (previously I removed %USERPROFILE%/.eclipse, just in case)
I create a new empty Java project, from the wizard. I generate a build.xml file (via "Export -> Ant buildfile"). (again, just in case, I close Eclipse, remove any .log file in workspace, and open it again).
I click to open build.xml
A noticeable lag occurs. Finally the Ant editor opens.
Logs in WORSKPACE/metadata/.log show "MESSAGE UI freeze" with different warnings in different run.
I attach several examples

Hey Hernán!
I was also experiencing some problems after updating to Eclipse 2020-06. It was slow and with some Maven errors. Today, it started to freeze before the Workspace selection.
After some research, I decided to update my computer's JRE to Java 11. Not only it started working again, but it got really faster performancewise. Even Maven errors stopped happening.
If possible, give it a try! Best regards!
