I tested building too, and it requies to patch the target platform
template see http://svn.apache.org/r1684082.

I'd expect that the new version takes longer to startup, on my Linux
machine I estimate startup time increased from 5 to 7 seconds.

I assume (but I'm not sure at all) the main reason is the upgrade from
Eclipse 3.8 to 4.4:
* e4 uses of dependency injection
* e4 uses modeled UI (EMF etc.)
* e4 allows styling of UI via CSS
* Compatibiliy layer for Eclipse 3

But maybe it makes sense to profile the startup to see if how much time
is spend for loading and starting the Studio bundles...

Kind Regards,
Stefan
