    Hi Everyone,

    I am not sure if this is an Eclipse thing or MyEclipse but I’ve caught MyEclipse using up my network bandwidth twice now. One time it was very bad that It was slowing down my machine.

    I have automatic updates or any type of update in Eclipse and MyEclipse turned off. Just right now as I’m typing this topic MyEclipse is sending packets again. It is clear that eclipse is doing someting because the CPU process is 21. When I exit MyEclipse the network activity stops.

    No errors on my log file in the .metada dir.

    Any feedbacks would be nice.

    Operating System and version:
    Eclipse version: 3.0.1
    Eclipse build id: 200409161125
    Fresh Eclipse install (y/n): y
    If not, was it upgraded to its current version using the update manager?

    Hrrm, MyEclipse will connect to the internet when you for example open XML files that have a DTD or Schema defined that are not in the catalog… it will try and pull them down, I have no idea why you are a) seeing so much network activity it slows down your computer and why b) Eclipse at rest is eating 21% of your CPU… that is really strange.

    Did this just start recently? If you run MyEclipse with JDK 1.4.2_06 do you notice the problem? Any other plugins to speak of?

    Come to think of it I never noticed it when running with 1.4.2_06. I wasn’t aware of the DTD/Schema features. I have a plug-in for Visual Source Safe but I’ve been using that for a while.

    I also have AspectJ and a Python scripting language plug-in. I guess I’ll just keep a lookout for strange things happening.
