java - Running a program in Debug mode is incredible slow

Question

Since recently it's much slower running a program in Debug mode in Eclipse Galileo.

I'm not aware of any changes.

Do you know what could be the cause? Running it normally is not a problem.

Answer 1

Another "debugging break" is the use of method entry/exit breakpoints.

Did you try to remove all breakpoint definitions once?

Sometimes i think Eclipse is getting out of synch with some of its internal/displayed state. Perhaps you should try to setup a new (not copy) of your workspace. This sometimes helps me to recover from spurious features.

This is how you can remove all breakPoints

Eclipse -> Run -> Remove All Breakpoints - for removing all Breakpoints for all Time

Eclipse -> Run -> Skip All Breakpoints - for temporary remove breakpoints
