I mentioned the 100% cpu issue in another thread - someone else said they had the same problem...
Basically, the *second* time you change a file and try rebuild, javaw.exe runs at 100% cpu usage. The IDE is still pretty responsive, but compiling/downloading runs incredibly slowly. It's like some background thread has gone berserk - maybe the C/C++ outliner/indexer or similar.
Only cure is to exit the IDE, manually kill javaw.exe/eclipse.exe (which is left running as well), and restart the IDE. This is under WinXP SP2, with NIOS II IDE 1.01.
I've exported my project and then imported it onto another engineers PC. The fault moved too!
I haven't been able to cut back the project to a minimal one which exhibits the problem, and I'm unable to determine exactly which change to a source file introduced the bug.
Try googling for "eclipse javaw.exe 100% cpu". Various things appear, but I haven't been able to confirm exactly which - if any- are like the problem I'm having.
I'll try and post a java stack dump, if I can find how to do this...
