[ BUILD # : beta 1 ] [ JDK VERSION : J2SE 1.4.2_05 ] Concerned about performance of the classpath scan that happens at startup: even on toy projects with 256MB given to the JVM on my 3Ghz laptop, it takes a while each time. Goodness knows what it would be like on a large project!
David, what do you mean by "performance of the classpath scan that happens at startup" ? At very first startup time is no classpath scan (only if you 've already opened project - means after restart IDE). Classpath is scanned after opening project, if you open first project after IDE installation, JDK classpath is scanned .... more iformation about this provides developers of java module ... it takes longer time (3-5 minutes depends on HW)...
The very first time I open the IDE, there is a *long* classpath scan (of src.zip, I think). What I was referring to was when I restart the IDE with an existing project open, or when I open an existing project. See also Simone's description - presumably regarding a larger project - on the netcat list.
