3.5 M5

When you open the Plug-in Registry view, a background process kicks in to 'initialize the plug-in registry'.

That's fine, but the view is unusable during that time and if I touch anything in the view, the whole workbench freezes.

Wassim,
this should be fixed in bug 262545. Have you had chance to try with HEAD?
Comment 2 Jacek Pospychala CLA 2009-04-06 06:59:14 EDT
(bug 262545 was fixed for M6)
Comment 3 Chris Aniszczyk CLA 2009-04-06 07:44:15 EDT
yap, this doesn't happen in M6 for me
