Re: [equinox-dev] Eclipse and the Mac System Log - Runaway CPU

[Thomas Watson <tjwatson@xxxxxxxxxx>]

It may actually be coming from the VM shipped with the Mac. The messages seem somewhat related to the extension classloader in the VM. Do you know if you are using an officially released version of the VM?

Thanks for the reply.  

Yea, I have no idea where this is coming from, but it's definitely coming from the Eclipse process (via pid).  Things got so bad I literally had to turn off the system log - which is a lovely way to be running your system, I might add ;)

No idea.... For what it's worth, these don't look like log messages produced by the platform or framework log. I don't recall ever seeing log output like this before.
