Eclipse 3.2GA + WebTools performance on Win2K [message #173541] Sat, 08 July 2006 04:49 Go to next message

I have had some real performance problems with Eclipse 3.2GA + WebTools
performance on Win2K. I downloaded the Eclipse 3.2GA runtime and used
update to add required components for WebTools from the Callisto update
site.

I am using the WSDL Editor, WebService Wizard and Web Service Explorer.
Various times a day and not necessarily tied to any particular operation
(could be creating web service, or just selecting from a menu) Eclipse
starts sucking up the entire CPU and requires a process termination.

At first I suspected problems with workspaces used with the RCn releases,
but even starting with a new, empty workspace the CPU lockup still occurs.
I noted that Web Service Explorer was using the internal web browser which
appeared to possibly use IE to render its XML views, tried launching
externally to Firefox, but still experience CPU lockups.

I haven't experienced the same problem running on Mac OS X, although I did
need to bump up the memory allocated for eclipse (in the eclipse.ini file)
to 512M because the WebTools would run out of memory with 256M.

I am running with Java 5 on both platforms.

The WSDL and XSD file I am using are just simple, small test examples.
They do function correctly when the CPU isn't locked up on Win2K, however
the frequency of this performance problem is becoming too high to continue
unless I can work around it.

Any ideas would be appreciated.

Has anyone else experienced this kind of high CPU consumption/lockup on
Windows with Eclipse 3.2GA + WebTools?

After posting this note, I did find that someone else has logged a bug,
only their bug is for Linux instead of Win2K:

Apparently I spoke too soon -- I have now had a number of CPU lockups with
Eclipse 3.2GA + WebTools on Mac OS X. Since the eclipse bug mentioned
earlier identified this problem on Linux, I would think by now that I am
hardly alone in encountering this high load CPU performance problem with
Eclipse 3.2GA + WebTools.

Has anyone else encountered this problem?

Thanks for pointing out the bug, Pat. I've made some comments there,
but we'll likely need some good reproducable test cases to track this do=

I've the same problems with Eclipse3.2+WebTools.
Sometimes it just 'dies', without a pattern so I've no idea, how to
make a test case to reproduce problem, problem appears while opening
preferences editor, opening/closing project, opening java file, editing
java file and other cases.
It's on WinXP, with java version "1.5.0_06", single processor.

Regards,
Tomek

I have seen this problem, too. My workspace contains a dynamic web app with some
classes and some JSPs, a dynamic web project with a small webservice, and a java
project with a webservice client. It happens sometimes that eclipse freezes or
behaves really strange.

But unfortunately this does not look reproducable, and unfortunately I'm lacking
the time to do more research :-(.

Waiting for 1.5.1, then...

These problem where it appears to "die" are different than the
performance slow downs or hangs that started this thread. These are
mostly likely "out of memory" errors, and, as out of memory
sometimes means not even enough memory is left for an error
message, it appears to end-user just to "die".

Especially if Sun's 1.5 VM's are used. This is a fairly well documented
problem, the main solution being ...
"If you are going to use Sun's VM, try to use the new 1.5.0_07 vers=
ion,
and you may still need to set -XX:MaxPermSize=3D128m"

I suffered from this problem too, Sun 1.5.0_07 + eclipse 3.2 + callisto.
My stupid solution is, restart the eclipse regularly.....once a hour....

Workaround for Eclipse 3.2GA + WebTools 100% CPU usage on Win2K [message #173937 is a reply to message #173541] Wed, 12 July 2006 02:15 Go to previous message

Thanks to a tip, I have a confirmed workaround for the 100% CPU usage
problem with Eclipse 3.2GA + WebTools.

In the eclipse.ini file, increase heap size (256m to 512m) and add the
MaxPermSize setting. Here is an excerpt from my eclipse.ini file contents
for reference:

-vmargs
-Xms40m
-Xmx512m
-XX:MaxPermSize=128m

I have logged a bug against the 100% CPU usage problem in Eclipse Bugzilla:

Summary: 100% cpu usage on Win2K (and others)
