Bug 158658 Eclipse 3.3 presentation: Minimize too slow on Windows
Reported: 2006-09-25 16:38:17 | Status: resolved fixed

3.3M2, 3.3 presentation enabled The animation is cute but it's currently too slow to be useful on my machine (WinXP SP2, dual 3.2Ghz, 2G memory, Nvidia GeForce 6200, 3 monitors). There's a noticeable pause (2-3 sec?) when it captures the screen before it starts scaling it down. javaw.exe (jdk1.5.0_06) takes close to 50% of the CPU during this period, i.e., close to 100% of a single CPU.
