  • Some of the solutions here may work [Clean out eclipse workspace metadata](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/11768106/clean-out-eclipse-workspace-metadata) I've had the issue a few times over the years - often times nothing really makes it better and I end up downloading a new version and starting over moving my projects into the new workspace - which isnt too big a deal as long as you dont have a ton of servers defined. – JGlass Jan 25 '18 at 21:04
  • Mine also currently does it, but it's with a web service implementation file thats a hundred thousand or so lines long. It will pause for a few seconds when copy and pasting - dont ask why it's so long ;-) – JGlass Jan 25 '18 at 21:05
  • I just downloaded another version and it still does that – malv Jan 25 '18 at 21:34
  • Eclipse searches the code indexes for 'code proposal' suggestions (content assist) so rebuilding them as JGlass suggests is a good idea. Also, check that part of the configuration, may be some code recommenders can be disabled. It could get slow after index rebuilding but should get better after a while. – LMC Jan 25 '18 at 22:21
  • How can I do that? – malv Jan 25 '18 at 22:40

    Treat it like a deadlock (except the part where you report it as one) and figure out what it's doing. https://wiki.eclipse.org/How_to_report_a_deadlock – nitind Jan 26 '18 at 01:25
