1. The really noticeable one is the Find Usages.
2. Mostly Windows users can take advantage from NIO2 watcher. Mac users
   shall be not affected.
3. All platform can have benefit from caching Archive root providers,
   though it may/may not be noticeable on all platforms/module/project
   setup.
4. The last patch is just for OpenJDK projects.

So, in fact, there should be noticeable performance improvements if these
enhancements work as intended?

Thank you Neil!

I'd like to ask to check the responsiveness of the IDE, do you feel some
improvement or regression compared to 11.1. We have applied some pathces:


https://github.com/apache/netbeans/pulls?q=label%3Aperformance+is%3Aclosed+milestone%3A11.2

If any of these seems to cause regression we would like to know in time
to be able to revert some of these patches.

Also some reinforcement feedback would be appreciated, if you feel some
improvement on specific areas.

Dear Community,

I'd like to announce that the first beta build for Apache NetBeans
11.2 from the release112 branch is available for download. Apologies
for the delay. Further betas will be released on Oct 2nd and 9th as
required. Release is aimed for Oct ~15th.

As per the release schedule, NB 11.2 is a non-LTS release, and will
not have a full NetCAT process.  However, feedback and testing from
those on the dev@ and netcat@ lists would still be appreciated,
particularly around new features.  Please file issues in JIRA as
necessary, with the affects and fix versions set to 11.2. Please take
note of the Bug Priority Guidelines (link below), in particular so
that we can address critical and blocking issues if they arise.

**If making PRs to fix issues, please add the 11.2 milestone and add
me as one of the reviewers**

See the artefacts here:

The binary you most likely need is:

The SHA512 sums if you would like to check them are provided there as
well as here:

New build infrastructure - known issues / changes:
As you may notice from the links, this is the first release using the
new build templates and Jenkins task (thanks Eric!). One thing this
does is switch from hardcoded versions across the code base to filling
this in from a central configuration file based on git branch and
hash.

* Local building from the source bundle is not correctly picking up
the git info file in the source bundle. Run `cp
nbbuild/gitinfo.properties nbbuild/build/` before running Ant (or
otherwise manually create the nbbuild/build folder and copy
gitinfo.properties into it). Will be fixed before full release as it's
a blocking issue.
* A git checkout of the release branch will also not correctly pick up
the required git info - this will be looked at before release too.
* File names are not currently marked with the beta1 suffix. On the
other hand, the splash and window are. Win some, lose some!
* The userdir will now be named differently for each beta and the final

release.

* Implementation versions across builds of the same sources still
differ. It is planned to fix this prior to release (separate thread to
follow).
