Typing lag in Eclipse Neon

Viewed 8414

I noticed an annoying typing lag in Eclipse Neon for Linux. Each time I type a letter, it appears on the screen with a little delay (less than a second). It happens in all source files, regardless of their size.

Any clues on how to get rid of this?

For me closing the "Project Explorer" solved the problem.

I had the same problem and disabling the Content assistant solved the lag issue. It is not the best solution but for now I am triggering the assistant manually using control+space (in Windows).

I had the same problem on a Eclipse Photon of Windows 10. I have tried the following methods:

  1. Edit eclipse.ini
  2. Close all validation
  3. Modify Content assistat
  4. Upgrade eclipst to Simrel
  5. Change theme
  6. change jdk
  7. Close Project Explorer and replace it with Package Explorer

Only point 7 is working
