CC'ing Paul: Hi, do you have any insight about this? See also same effect reported in bug 514171. May be that got worse now, I wonder if it would be better for you if you would switch Appearance / themes off.

The problem does indeed go away when I disable theming. (In reply to Mat Booth from comment #3) > (In reply to Andrey Loskutov from comment #2) > > See also same effect reported in bug 514171.

Many problems go away by disabling themes :-) We've switched that off by default in the lab, because it causes a **huge** overhead, especially if running Eclipse on remote host via ssh. Basically by its nature an extra "theme" on top of native widgets causes more redraws and so more flickering cheese in your case (or more network traffic for ssh).
