Description Tomas Mysik 2012-02-22 14:33:08 UTC 
Displaying Javadoc makes HTTP connections for JDK classes even if it has bundled sources. Moreover, the results of these HTTP connections are not cached at all so the same Javadoc is fetched every time again and again.

Sample:
public static void main(String[] args) {
    JTable table = new JTable();
    table.| // <- invoke CC here and wait for Javadoc
}

Filing as P2 since the IDE usability is _horrible_ - one needs to wait for every Javadoc to be fetched and displayed (about 30 seconds in my case).

Thanks.

Comment 1 Tomas Mysik 2012-02-22 14:36:04 UTC 
BTW the only work around is to remove the Javadoc URL from Platforms and restart the IDE (it does not work without the restart).
Comment 2 Tomas Zezula 2012-02-22 14:38:46 UTC 
Don't complain there were times when even restart did not help, the HTTP Javadoc was automatically readded again. ;-)
