How to stop Eclipse from hanging on a long autocompletion list?

I'm using the GL class from JOGL, which basically contains all OpenGL functions. Now I just installed the Javadoc for JOGL, because it's nice to have the parameter names if you can't remember the order.

However, with this Javadoc installed, it takes about half a minute to show the autocompletion list whenever I type GL.. Since I'm making a lot of OpenGL calls, this is hugely annoying.

Apart from uninstalling or disabling the JOGL Javadoc, is there any way to make the list appear faster, or not at all?

  • Preferences -> Java -> Editor -> Content Assist

    Try some different settings in the "Auto-Activation" frame.

    Thomas : For now, I turned it off completely, but that is hardly a decent solution. Maybe I should submit a bug report...
