You shouldn't have a source file that long, refactor.

 Hey Matt (et al),



Does Adobe have any specific suggestions for setting up Eclipse to prevent
the SLUGGISH EDITTING that many of us are seeing?



I sometimes have to stop typing for 5-10 seconds to wait for Eclipse to
CATCH UP to what I've typed.  I'm not trying to say that I'm typing so
amazingly fast that you should be impressed (I'm probably an average typist
for a coder):  I'm saying that eclipse is literally falling 5/10/15
characters behind, and I have to just sit there and wait until it decides to
print what I've typed.



It FEELS like a memory management/garbage collection issue to me.  This
seems more pronounced if a larger source file (2000 lines+) is open, but
sometimes appears in SHORT component files (30 lines?)



Any specific suggestions from you guys would really be appreciated.





Thanks in Advance,





Steve

40 applications is a whole lotta applications to compile, and I believe
the project is going to compile all of them.  Maybe you could create
different projects with the applications and use a library project for
shared code?  Less would need to be re-compiled each time.

Hello. I've been using Flex 2 for 3 months now. There's around 40 mxml
applications plus component, and actionscript files in the project and
the compilation (building) time has considerably increased with
time...taking up to 5-10 minutes at times. I've upgraded to Java
1.5.0.09 and changed the settings in the FlexBuilder configuration
file and still no significant improvements have been noticed. Could
anyone help me out with this issue.

Deleting the Bin folder and re-compiling the whole project as well did
not solve the problem.

PC Specs: Pentium 4 HT (3.0 MHz, 1GB DDR2 Memory, Integrated graphic card)

Thanks for your cooperation.

I've modified the Flexbuilder.ini file to increase memory usage.  It
speeds it up a good bit, but has also caused the occasional crash of FB.
More detail at: http://eclipsezone.com/eclipse/forums/t61618.html

 

Be sure reference FlexBuilder.ini instead of Eclipse.ini.
