This bug was originally marked as duplicate of bug 233800, that is already resolved. This bug is still valid, so this seems to be another bug, but it might be related. Build: NetBeans IDE 8.0.2 (Build 201411181905) VM: Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM, 25.51-b03, Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment, 1.8.0_51-b16 OS: Windows 7 User Comments: jiai: Starting Netbeans with a lot of projects open and a deleted cache.

Method o.n.m.maven.problems.ProblemReporterImpl.addMissingArtifact() tries to add a file change listener in EDT, but the lock (FileChangeImpl.holders) is held by thread "Maven Project reloading". It seems that the hard drive is busy and unresponsive for some time (quite common for NTFS). Listener registration in ProblemReporterImpl.addMissingArtifact() could be rescheduled to some background thread, but I'm not sure it is worth the effort, as the slowness is primarily caused by the native filesystem, and the whole OS may be unresponsive. Reassigning to projects/Maven. Thank you for reporting.
This old bug may not be relevant anymore. If you can still reproduce it in 8.2 development builds please reopen this issue. Thanks for your cooperation, NetBeans IDE 8.2 Release Boss
