[android-developers] Re: Slow Eclipse on OS X
I've had the same problem I too have narrowed it down to the XML tools. My Eclipse experiences no more slow down if I open XML files with Eclipse's built in XML editor. You do lose the advantages of the ADT XML editors, but still, I recommend using them on a case by case basis and defaulting to the standard editor. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.

Re: [android-developers] Re: Slow Eclipse on OS X
Ok then. I downloaded the 32 bit version first and it got better after I re-installed Eclipse, this time the 64 bit version. But maybe I am imagining things.

[android-developers] Re: Slow Eclipse on OS X
Yes, this actually happens on my Vista 64-bit install as well. After a while, Eclipse just grinds to a halt, and I need to restart it.

[android-developers] Re: Slow Eclipse on OS X
Hi, I encountered the same problems and finally solved them by installing the Carbon version of Eclipse (eclipse-SDK-3.5.2-macosx- carbon.tar.gz). regards spachner On Jun 14, 8:07 am, Al Sutton wrote: > Of Eclipse?, yup, I'm using the 64 bit Coca build.

[android-developers] Re: Slow Eclipse on OS X
Of Eclipse?, yup, I'm using the 64 bit Coca build. I don't know if there is a 64 bit ADT, I just use what I'm offered in the Eclipse "Install Software" dialog. As a side note; my Macbook Pro runs everything it can in 64 bit mode (inc. the kernel), which isn't a common configuration and so might be an influencing factor, but I wouldn't have thought it would have such a noticeable effect, and it certainly doesn't have a similar effect on anything else I use (J2EE, Amazon plugin, Subversion, ...)

[android-developers] Re: Slow Eclipse on OS X
Al, Exactly the same thing happens to me on OS X. I've accepted that I need to restart Eclipse every so often to solve the problem. It's particularly exacerbated if using the XML tools - for example, layout or editing the manifest file the "friendly" way. Dave.

[android-developers] Re: Slow Eclipse on OS X
It's been a problem for a while, I opened a bug at http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=6183 so you can put a star on it if you want to vote it up. My experience is that it seems to be down to the layout previewer, the more I use it the faster performance degrades. Al. P.S. Before anyone suggests tweaks to my eclipse.ini, I already have ms & max perm size at 256m, mx at 1024m. My machine is a 4GB box with a flash SSD, so the problem isn't physical memory space or disk i/o.
