Description Wassim Melhem CLA 2005-04-11 15:58:06 EDT
Clicking on the 'Plug-in Details' or 'Configuration Details' buttons in the 
About dialog are time-consuming operations when the product in question has a 
large number of plug-ins.

Yet, there is no hourglass, a busy cursor or a visual indicator of any sort 
between the time I click the button and the ten seconds later when the dialog 
actually appears.

Of course, this problem would not be noticeable in pure Eclipse (86 plug-ins).

From comment 0, it appears as though the bug was reported when Eclipse had 86 plug-ins.

It was a simpler time...
