I think it’s interesting that this issue was exactly why I switched away from Eclipse years ago. The performance was atrocious.

I guess that pushed them to improve ;)

Yeah, "modern Eclipse" is a very different beast from "several years ago Eclipse", that also goes for performance.

As I said in a parent, I'm very certain the competition from IntelliJ got them off their asses :).
