Re: Slow display of editor tabs

["Knut Radloff" <knut_radloff@xxxxxxx>]

You are probably just low on memory.
If the first activation of a particular editor is slow it may also be that
the plug-in that implements that editor has not been loaded yet. If later
activations of an editor of the same type (e.g. Java) are slow then it
really is a low memory situation - get more ram.
