Typing lag in Eclipse Neon










4















I noticed an annoying typing lag in Eclipse Neon for Linux. Each time I type a letter, it appears on the screen with a little delay (less than a second). It happens in all source files, regardless of their size.



Any clues on how to get rid of this?

  • This did the trick for me askubuntu.com/questions/760302/…. It messes up the visual appearance a little, but at least it speeds it up.

  • Thanks. I was using it in Windows. I found another way to solve it, by increasing the size of the initial memory i allocate to 512MB (-Xms512m) in my eclipse.ini. But if that fixed your problem, i think it would be best to spend a minute or two to write your own answer to the question and accept it. Just saying. Cheers.

  • The trick that I did is more like a workaround. Besides this, it messes up the UI a little, so I don't think it's quite a valid answer.

I had the same problem on a Windows 10 PC. In the eclipse.ini file, changing all values set to 256M or 256m to 512M/512m solves the problem, assuming your computer has enough memory to handle this limit upgrade. Happened only when I was working on two different projects with many tabs opened.

  • Eclipse still becomes laggy if I have it open 24/7 for a few days on my computer. Closing and restarting the application always removes the lag at this point.

I had the same problem and disabling the Content assistant solved the lag issue. It is not the best solution but for now I am triggering the assistant manually using control+space (in Windows).

      I had the same problem on a Eclipse Photon of Windows 10.
      I have tried the following methods:



      1. Edit eclipse.ini

      2. Close all validation

      3. Modify Content assistat

      4. Upgrade eclipst to Simrel

      5. Change theme

      6. change jdk

      7. Close Project Explorer and replace it with Package Explorer

      Only point 7 is working
