IDE sample

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #198203 +++

Project group window often takes 5-10 seconds to open with a list of about 10 projects. This shouldn't take so long, especially since the popup only lists projects and no other metadata (this is what the 'properties' button is for!).

Note that none of the projects in the list have invalid POMs, and opening any one of them is very fast.

60 calls to io.File.GetCanonicalPath - 5s
not sure if there is anything to be done about it

please evaluate

Comment 2 Jaroslav Havlin 2015-08-10 14:50:33 UTC

Checking recursive symlinks involved file path normalization for MultiFileObjects and thus File.GetCanonicalPath.

The algorithm and API for detection of symbolic links has changed, so the performance should be improved in NetBeans 8.1.
