> Our team uses Ivy/IvyDE, and noticed Eclipse hanging today/yesterday, to the 
> point of being unusable.
> I tracked it down to Eclipse asking IvyDE "is this your file?", which  
> IvyDE's IvySettingsContentDescriber used XMLHelper.parse to answer, but then 
> Xerces hung while trying to load the XML file's DTD.
> So, the problem was the DTD being unavailable, but it seems like XMLHelper 
> should turn this off, especially if the schema parameter is null, and it's in 
> non-validating mode.
> The attached patch turns off external DTD fetching when XMLHelper is already 
> in non-validating mode.
> This avoids the wire call, which speeds up the XMLHelper.parse by at least 
> 100%, ~250-300ms when fetching the DTD, to ~100-150ms when not. (And this is 
> the happy case, in the worst case, waiting for the timeout if the DTD is 
> unavailable, takes ~20s).
