If the content to be indexed overnight forms a read-only contribution to the
project (e.g. an SDK) then you can use the offline index application:
        http://help.eclipse.org/help33/topic/org.eclipse.cdt.doc.isv/reference/extension-points/org_eclipse_cdt_core_CIndex.html
There is some more documentation under
        CDT Plugin Developer Guide -> Programmer's Guide -> CDT DOM -> Prebuilt Indexes in CDT 4.0
but this is not yet mirrored on help.eclipse.org.

Otherwise there isn't an application for this at the moment:
