eclipsekey-bindings
When in a Java editor in Eclipse, pressing Ctrl+Alt+M inserts a new line (like hitting the enter key). How can I disable that? I did not find any corresponding entry in Preferences > General > Keys.
The same happens if I press Alt Gr+M (generally, Alt Gr seems to be the same as Ctrl+Alt in many cases).
Is there some other place where you can see/disable/change key shortcuts in Eclipse (or plug-ins?)
The three most influential factors for Eclipse speed are:
The "same" workspace in Indigo (3.7.2) SR2 loads in 4 seconds, in Kepler SR2 (4.3.2) in 7 seconds and in Luna (4.4.0) in 10 seconds. All are Java EE bundles. Newer versions have more bundled plugins, but still the trend is obvious. (by "same" workspace I mean: same (additionally installed) plugins used, same projects checked out from version control).
Launching it with the latest JDK (Java 14 at the time of writing, which does not prevent you to compile in your Eclipse project with any other JDK you want: 1.4.2, 1.5, 1.6 older...)
-vm jdk1.6.0_10\jre\bin\client\jvm.dll
Configuring the eclipse.ini (see this question for a complete eclipse.ini)
-Xms512m
-Xmx4096m
[...]
The Xmx argument is the amount of memory Eclipse will get (in simple terms). With -Xmx4g, it gets 4 GB of RAM, etc.

From version 4.8 (Photon) an up there was a steady speed gain after each version.
The main platform was optimized every release to load faster, enable more features for the dark theme and to add more features for newer Java versions for the Java development tools.
Especially with-in the last 3 versions the startup time was increased a lot. There should be a significant increase in start-up time with the newest version of Eclipse 2020-12.In my experience it started a lot faster with each new version.
But: There are still plug-ins which do not follow the new way of using the Eclipse API and are therefore still slow to start.
Since the change to Java 11 as the minimum runtime version starting from Eclipse version 2020-09 at least the core system uses the newer features of the JVM. It is up to the providers of the other plug-ins to upgrade to newer APIs and to use the full power of modern CPUs (e.g. concurrent programming model).
Window → Preferences → General → Editors → Text Editors → Show line numbers.
Edit: I wrote this long ago but as @ArtOfWarfar and @voidstate mentioned you can now simply:
Right click the gutter and select "Show Line Numbers":

@msa, Go to : Window --> Preferences --> General --> Keys. Now type Ctrl+Alt+M in the search box. You will find a command named as "Add Memory Block" & an option below that "Unbind Command". Select the command & press the button. Now Click on "Apply" button & you're done.
