21 years ago- I made a complete new setup with quartus 5.0 on a new harddisk,
because I wanted to keep the older version 4.2, so no garbage from older times. - I don't have enough experience to work with linux. - I work with Win xp prof and home, nothing else is supported I don't want to play with different Java versions because I need a stable system (i think nios uses jre under ..altera\quartus50\bin\jre) (everything else works at the moment). I have seen the same problem at another PC, same Nios project, so I think its a general problem and not a problem with my PC. When I enter some keys, short time after that, there is a short peak of 100% cpu usage of jawaw.exe. It' not long, let's say one second or less, but there is no continuous typing of characters possible, it's simple confusing. The project is also not very huge, about 30 smaller files. I have read that main goal of Eclipse 3.1 will be improved performance. Perhaps Altera can make a build with Eclipse 3.1 in the near future ?.
