I have recently installed a new project into my Eclipse and also needed to install some plug-ins to manage it. I also installed other plug-ins which I do not need to manage the project but thought it will be nice to try out.
After this, I noticed that my IDE isn’t as fast to respond as before. I’m not sure if it has something to do with the size of the new project (which is almost 8 times larger than what I had before in my workspace) or the number of plug-ins installed.
Since I can’t do anything about the size of the project, and Christmas has passed and I won’t get new hardware any time soon, I was wondering if there is something I can do about the plug-ins (except uninstall them :P).
Can I configure them as to be lazy loaded whenever I open an associated perspective or view? I’m not sure exactly how they work but I would imagine that this is already the case.
Is there something I can do, plug-in related, to speed up my IDE?
Thank you.
