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

Question

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.
