Description Mike Wilson

In some situations, users have workspaces containing hundreds of projects and hundreds of thousands of 
files. Scoped builds and working sets have become important tools for these users, and the performance 
optimizations done in Eclipse 3.1 have proven helpful. Eclipse should have even more support for dealing 
with very large workspaces, including improved searching, filtering, working sets, and bookmarks. This 
goes hand-in-hand with ongoing work to discover and address performance issues. [Platform UI, 
Resources]

Could part of this include allowing folders to live as top-level objects in
workspaces, and to include projects?  I'd *love* to be able to nest projects
into groups (folders) inside my workspace.

Never mind, I see that bug #35973 covers what I was asking about.

We have implemented the improved working set support, related project support (closing and opening of related projects) and the filtered trees to address this issue in 3.2.
