RE: [platform-core-dev] Re: New platform NLS support
Your results indicate this saves memory at run time, but I was wondering what impact would all the new Java elements have on plug-in development. The JavaModel Cache is using a ton of memory as it is, and I'm worried this might add more stress on that when you are working with a big Java project like Eclipse itself. See http://www.eclipsepowered.org/archives/2004/11/30/eclipse-grand-challenges/#comment-652 .

Q: It sounds like a lot of work... is it really worth it?

A: Yes.  High memory usage is an Eclipse bug and it is worth investing time to fix it.  With the conversion tool a plug-in can be converted to the new format in about 20 minutes.
