The slowness was caused by JFileChooser. It seems that the hard drive was quite slow, probably under heavy load. This cannot be fixed in NetBeans. Thank you for reporting.
Problem in preforming File operations in EDT. Please extend NetBeans file chooser to avoid File operations in EDT.
Adding 8.1_WAIVER_REQUEST keyword. The slowness is mostly reported from Windows OS, whose NTFS filesystem is sometimes too slow. The fix could be quite complicated and risky, so I would like to waive this issue for now. Thank you for understanding.
Bug waiver for 8.1 approved.
