I concur with this. Fortunately, our need for DDS is minimal with legacy work only. I've set the default editor (Preferences>General>Editor>File Associations) to Remote Systems LPEX. Rarely do I do enough work with DDS to need the Screen Desinger anyway.

I've found that DDS lags when you have really big data dictionary defined. It constantly refers to that object and ties it up.

Subject: [WDSCI-L] Excessive garbage collecting
Regularly, in RDi 9.0.1 (but also in RDi 8.5) eclipse "hangs" for half a second, apparantly because of garbage collecting, which is unworkable if it happens continuously.
Previously, with 8.5, the problem appears when i edit DDS (Display) sources.
I don't have this problem when editing RPG(LE) sources.
I already tweaked the VM arguments:
-Xms256m
-Xmx1280m
-Xmnx256m
-Xscmx96m
-XX:MaxPermSize=512M
-Xss2m
Installed memory is 4GB.
With 9.0.1, the problem did not seem to surface anymore.
But, now i'm editing a simple DDS (PF) source, and it's impossible to edit because of the constant lag. I don't know what it's doing, but a PF DDS shouldn't be too complicated to parse (unless it constantly scans all tables in the complete library list...).
At first there was no problem, but now, after editing 3 new, simple DDS sources all of a sudden i have to restart RDi because it's unworkable.
Then, after restarting RDi, i continue editing the * comments in the PF DDS (which is only three fields), and after about 20 minutes the same behavior again.
Back to SEU again (for DDS).
