Eclipse freezes a lot while developing android application, also the emulator

While working in eclipse "Juno" and Android development kit on Ubuntu, It freezes a lot and I should wait for about 40 seconds to get it back. Why is that ??

It freezes when I build project, do some thing in the layout or views , submitting to git repo, running the emulator ( it freezes with no logcat entries written for a while, then i get all the messages at once) and many other cases.

Does any one know why is that ?

If the above process does not works for you then try this once

If you're having this problem, then in eclipse you should be able to see a directory that is full of hundreds or thousands of text files. Eclipse will try to process them. To tell it not to, right click on the project, then click properties -> resource -> resource filters. Add an exclude all rule where the name matches the folder name. You may also want to do this for any .svn folders or the like.

Try giving more memory to your eclipse. In your eclipse installation folder in the eclipse.ini file under the -vmargs option: 

-Xms256m
-Xmx1024m
