Eclipse – “Remote System Explorer Operation” causing freeze for couple of seconds

eclipse

I observe "Remote System Explorer Operation" in Progress view of Eclipse after each save of Java file (so it might be related to compiling?). It makes the Eclipse unusable for 1 to 10 seconds. In some projects (of about the same size) it's quicker, in some it's slower.

I have no idea which plugin might be the cause for it. I have Build id: 20090920-1017. I have quite a few plugins installed.

I have tried turning all the remote systems to enabled=false under Preferences | Remote Systems (whatever it means). I didn't help.

Any idea how to solve it?

EDIT:

  1. It doesn't happen when Project | Build automatically is turned off. So it's some part of the building process.

Here are the steps:

  1. Click on the Windows > Preferences menu
  2. Select General > Startup and Shutdown in the tree
  3. Uncheck RSE UI
  4. Select Remote Systems in the tree
  5. Uncheck Re-open Remote Systems view to previous state
  6. Restart Eclipse

Note: You must have Eclipse 4.3.1 (or newer) due to a bug on previous version
