Sometimes, I'll run a program that accidentally contains an infinite loop or something. Eclipse will let me continue editing the program, but be super slow. How can I stop it? (Do I want to restart the JVM?) Restarting eclipse itself always works, but that breaks my workflow.

Open the Console view, locate the console for your running app and hit the Big Red Button.
Alternatively if you open the Debug perspective you will see all running apps in (by default) the top left. You can select the one that's causing you grief and once again hit the Big Red Button.

Debug view is often more convenient as it shows all running processes. The console only shows one of them.
