Description DJ Houghton CLA 2010-10-27 09:33:18 EDT
Cloned to track release into 3.6.x maintenance branch.

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #315773 +++

The path to the file is usually like this:

configuration\org.eclipse.osgi\bundles\74\data\1175256916\content.xml.

If the product is installed from an update site on first launch, this file can grow quite big. It has very similar content to .profile files. I believe it should be gzipped as the latter one.
