By auto suggest, I mean that intellisense that pops up when I write something. My problem is that if I write something like btnMyButton.
after typing .
I get to wait a few seconds until eclipse populates the list with events for button. I am using Eclipse to develop Android applications.
Can this be sped up? I have a Quad Core processor and 4 GB of ram. The rest of Eclipse is working fine.
I was also experiencing this problem. I found my answer here:

In summary:
turn off JAX-WS Proposals in Content Assist
Window > Preferences --> Java > Editor > Content Assist > Advanced
I don't have JAX-WS in there... thank you for anwser anyway, it might help others.
I don't have "JAX-WS Proposals" in that list. I have unchecked everything other than "Java Proposals" and Eclipse is still very slow.
You can also try changing the Auto Activation parameters. You can either disable it completely or you can increase the "delay" to make sure it does not hang your Editor while you are typing.
Same Problem, but no "JAX-WS" present, disabling "SWT Template Proposal" and "Chain Template Proposal" resulted in a huge speedup. (On top some of the exceptions thrown sometimes did disappear from the log...)
The problem went away for me after disabling Java Proposals (Code Recommenders) and enabling Java Proposals instead (without the Code Recommenders tag)
