I suggest anyone having problems to add constructive details on that bug. 
For example profiler output when repeatedly performing a slow operation, 
what plugins are installed, whether it is reproducible with vanilla 
Eclipse SDK, etc. There are some users reporting pervasive slowdowns, and 
for many others it is performing well. Something like a listener leak 
could have effects like this in conjunction with particular installed 
plugins. It takes time after any major release to isolate and resolve 
problems like this.

Re: [cross-project-issues-dev] Performance, 3.8 versus 4.2






It's an issue not always reproducable. 

I never meet such problem in my environments. But I know somebody has 
similar problem.

Bug 385272[1] is a known report.

Hi,

For various reasons I had to switch my development environment from 4.2 to 
3.8 today. I was stunned by the performance improvement after the switch. 
The 3.8 platform is much MUCH faster. It boots faster, it closes windows 
faster, it shows menus faster, etc. It also seems to consume less memory 
and be less buggy. The way things stand right now, there's just no way 
I'll switch back to 4.2!

I must say I was very surprised by this. Why is the 4.2 platform what's 
being fronted on the Eclipse download page when it's user experience and 
quality is lagging behind this much? Is it just me who have had this 
experience?

Thomas Hallgren
