Thanks Cameron:

CF Builder freezes a lot. Flash Builder does not, though, both are Eclipse 
IDEs. I use them mainly because of code hinting, syntax highlighting and 
ability to detect errors as I type. There is only one project in CF Builder so 
I am wondering why does it have to crawl.

I appreciate your advice.

Apologies if this was already suggested, but Eclipse in general can be a little 
bit "hangy" if you have a whole bunch of projects open. The more files you have 
open the more Eclipse has to crawl through when it's rebuilding your workspace. 
I'd check to make sure any projects you aren't currently using are closed. 
Also, I'd recommend against mapping to a giant central location on your drive 
to avoid having to use projects the way Eclipse intended. I think there is an 
option to "close unrelated projects" from the right click menu in Eclipse to 
cleanly close everything else.

Not sure this is your problem, but "Building Workspace" is what happens when 
it's crawling through everything. "Sleeping" probbaly means it's not actually 
crawling, but who knows.

Again, this is why I stopped using CFBuilder. I am 100% sure I could have 
followed advice of folks like Charlie and gotten CFBuilder to hum along without 
any trouble, but I personally don't feel like using an IDE should be that much 
work. Any technology I have to constantly fight just to use it goes into my 
trash bin pretty quickly now-a-days.
