Eclipse JS editor is so slow

Hi guys i am using eclipse 2020 from eclipse Oxygen, i feel this new eclipse(2020) so slow when open find(ctrl+f) and show inherited member(ctrl+o) compare to oxygen. It's take 2-3 second to open. Did anyone get this problem too?

I had the same problem in Eclipse 2021-03 after I upgraded from Oxygen.2. When a Java file editor is active everything is fine, but when a JS file (or HTML file) editor is active, everything seems sluggish: ctrl+f, double clicking a file in the Package explorer, but also opening and closing the Eclipse About box.

I narrowed it down to the Wild Web Developer plugin that I installed to get syntax highlighting for JavaScript files. Uninstalling it solved the problem, but then I miss syntax highlighting.

Googling I found this post on the Eclipse forums suggesting it had something to do with 'Language Servers' feature. I disabled all Language Servers in Window -> Preferences -> Language Servers and the problem disappeared while still having JS syntax highlighting. Not sure about the downsides though.

I think this issue is happening when you use CTRL. Please try it out:

Go to Window -> Preferences -> General -> Editors -> Text Editors -> Hyperlinking and either uncheck Enable on demand hyperlink style navigation or change Default modifier key.

For Reference: Eclipse hang when copying / pasting code
