Update. I stopped using Eclipse on Ubuntu for now, but I'm just facing the same problem again, now with Emacs 25.2.1. It appeared when I maximised the window and then tried to reduce it. gnome-shell CPU load reached 95% and after a while decreased down to 70%, but it's not stable, sometime increases again to some peaks... Seems not Eclipse related and seems Emacs too can trigger the same troubles. Please tell me if you need further logs - not sure I can reuse the same reference as above for apport-collect...

Since I did, I cannot use Eclipse any more. I can start Eclipse, but as soon as I try to de-maximize it, gnome-shell CPU load raises to 80%-95% and remains that level. I ¥t sometimes drops a bit down to 70% but still keeps high and blocks everything. Even if by chance and patience I succeed closing Eclipse, the CPU load keeps high. Until now I found no way to recover. Ubuntu 17.10 Gnome 3.26.2 Runs in Virtual box Core i7x2 8 GB RAM Eclipse Photon 4.8 M6 But same happened with Oyxgen 4.7.2 Other info needed, please let me know... not sure how to circle this closer.
