How to speed up eclipse

1. Go to Windows -> Preferences -> Validation and uncheck any validators you don’t want or need.

2.For Eclipse 3.7, you use Windows -> Preferences -> General -> Startup and Shutdown.

3. Add -Xverify:none to your eclipse.ini file.It will cut down your Eclipse startup time considerably (50% in my case if not more). This will tell the VM not to validate all the .class files it is loading.
