Thanks for your replies.

I'm using the default Eclipse 3.5 JEE installation. My (unchanged) eclipse.ini looks like this:

-startup
./../../plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.0.200.v20090520.jar
--launcher.library
./../../plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.cocoa.macosx_1.0.0.v20090519
-product
org.eclipse.epp.package.jee.product
-showsplash
org.eclipse.platform
--launcher.XXMaxPermSize
256m
-vmargs
-Dosgi.requiredJavaVersion=1.5
-XstartOnFirstThread
-Dorg.eclipse.swt.internal.carbon.smallFonts
-XX:MaxPermSize=256m
-Xms40m
-Xmx512m
-Xdock:icon=../Resources/Eclipse.icns
-XstartOnFirstThread
-Dorg.eclipse.swt.internal.carbon.smallFonts


If I close the projects that contain the large source files then the Content Assist is back up to speed. Unfortunately I need these projects open often during the day.

Is there any way to tell Content Assist to ignore them?

Thanks.
