Hmm. What about opening a second .java file? Once the JDT UI plugins
are (lazily) loaded they should be much faster.
I thought that would be true too, but unfortunately it doesn't get
much faster when opening subsequent files. And all editors seem to be
equally slow, including the plain-text editor. I'll try this at home
tonight on my laptop and see if it happens there too; might be
something weird on this computer.
