hey folks, anyone else out there experiencing a problem where after a
while using eclipse, that audio (from iTunes e.g.) starts to get
scratchy and choppy? I observe that problem even just dragging the
mouse cursor around when eclipse is in focus.
Yes, I've experienced this same problem. I've gotten into the habit of
just quitting/restarting eclipse every few hours :-(.
btw, i'm running Tiger 10.4.3, Java 1.5_03 (*non* DP), Powerbook 17"
1GB RAM
My setup: 20" iMac G5 (1.8GHz), 2GB RAM, Java 1.4.2_09 (no DPs ever
installed)
I looked at the output of "top"; other than eating up a ton of VM,
there doesn't seem to be any good reason for it. With my setup I
usually have close to 1GB of physical RAM free even running Eclipse,
iTunes, Safari, Mail.app and BOINC running a couple of apps. I suspect
something in SWT locks something for longer than it should (how's that
for a concrete diagnosis :-).
