Why is SpringSource Tool Suite (STS) so slow? And how can I fix it?

I've been running STS 2.3.2 on a MacBook Pro for a few days now. I'm finding the performance to be significantly slower than any other build of Eclipse I've used. For example, switching from one tab to another can take up to 4 seconds.

I tried turning off much of the validation, and increasing the memory, but it's not making a difference.

Are others having similar experiences?

anyone find a solution to this? I have the same problem with my macbook pro i7.

Rafael, I gave up on it and went back to Eclipse Helios. The Spring sales guy that kept emailing me after I downloaded it was not very helpful, either.

I had the same problem on a MacBook Pro i7. Switching editors or views was painfully slow. Solved it by turning off Spring validators that I didn't need. Go to:

SpringSource Tool Suite -> Preferences -> Spring -> Project Validators

Specifically, I deselected all validators except for Spring Validator, Beans Validator and STS Bean Validator.

Thanks Michael. I gave up on STS awhile ago, but I'll give that a shot next time I try it out.

It remains the same... very sloooow! Specially when you work with Maven Multi projects...
