Description Matteo Catena CLA 2018-11-07 08:14:21 EST
Hello. I'm experiencing some problems with the java ide. It feels sluggish (e.g., it takes time to show autocompletion options, or class implementations, etc) and it crashes a lot. I'm using an Ubuntu 18.04 laptop equipped with an i7 processor and 8gb ram. Usually, my workspace has >5 open maven projects. I'm sorry I cannot provide more details on how to reproduce this scenario. I'm available to answer questions on this problem to provide you the information needed to solve it.

Best regards,
Matteo

First, can you please try with a recent build?
If possible use an I-build from
  http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/index.html
Otherwise, m1 (m2 at the end of this week) from
  https://www.eclipse.org/downloads/packages/release/2018-12/m1

Next, please tell us if your projects are using any Java verions >= 9, which?

Finally, each problem should be its own bug report:
- performance issues with some kind of data to back, e.g., stack dumps taken during the freeze.
- crashes with the corresponding exception stack trace

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
