David,

When you close project, JDT rebuild anything that depended on it, and that triggers refresh for the classpath container, i.e. replace reference to depended project into jar from a local Maven repository. The latter may trigger some downloading in case if required jars are not in the local repository, but that downloading only happen once.

Also note that if you have "download sources/javadoc" option enabled it will slow things down, which can be quite noticeable for large projects (especially if there are no source or javadoc available from remote repositories), so we generally recommend to not keep that option enabled all the time. There is a JIRA issue already to improve this and we'll look at it at some point.

 Thanks

 Eugene

I just updated form eclipse 3.1.2/m2eclipse 0.0.9 to 3.3.0/0.0.12 and see behavior that I don't like. I have about 10 projects open (all maven projects), that depend on each other. If I close one, a build frenzy breaks out that last up to a minute, with maven downloading dependencies and so. In 0.0.9, the closing of a project was a one second operation. Is there a way to get back the old behavior ?
I looked thru options, but did not find anything.
(sorry if this is because of the new eclipse and not of the maven plugin) Regards,
David
