Re: [m2e-users] 533 MB in .plugins/org.eclipse.m2e.core/nexus directory

[Fred Bricon <fbricon@xxxxxxxxx>]

About network consumption, we're talking  about an initial 150MB index download per workspace, then incremental updates once a week.

As for the inter-process file locks, I'm curious to know how Intellij and Netbeans solved that issue.

Anyways, the plan is to get rid of the whole nexus index altogether, because it's a PITA to maintain, Igor already mentioned it several times I guess.

The idea is to move to a "simple" rest client that'd perform remote searches to, say, search.maven.org (or some other service).

Can't give any ETA for that feature though.

That is true, inter-process file looks can be difficult to handle.

I would be interested to hear if the other m2e developer see value in
changing the current default (looks like Fred, Gabor and Konrad are
currently the only active ones according to
https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/technology.m2e/who).

If not, so be it. FYI,in my setup the index download takes a total of
6 GB. Network consumption is also a bit annoying if I start with a new
workspace.

Best regards, Lars
