Re: [m2e-users] 533 MB in .plugins/org.eclipse.m2e.core/nexus directory

[Lars Vogel <lars.vogel@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Matthew,

thanks for the information.

Does this index have to be downloaded per workspace? I would guess
that downloading and storing is once, e.g., in the .m2m or another one
in the users home directory, would be sufficient. If that assumption
is true and the m2e developer thinks that this would be worth
implementing, I can open an enhancement request for this in Bugzilla.

Best regards, Lars
