Eclipse GUI speed issue

[Alex Pivovarov]

I have two OS (Suse 10 and FreeBSD 6.1) on my computer (Athlon-XP
1800+, 512Mb, Seagate 7200)

Suse has jdk15 + Eclipse 3.2
FreeBSD diablo-jdk15 + Eclipse 3.1.2  (both installed from packages)

The problem is that Eclipse GUI works a bit slower on FreeBSD that on Suse.
for instance:
 - trees open slower
- class creation is slower

I mean it's quite fast but it's observably slower than on Suse.

I'd say that Eclipse GUI speed is similar on Suse and on Windows but
observably slower on FreeBSD.

Do you have any idea why it could be.
