Build Identifier: I20110613-1736

During editing/adding a new software site to a target definition file, on have to naturally to select which plugins to include. But when selection multiple item groups, the window freezes for longer and longer periods of time, the more items you have selected.
When the window freezes, my CPU uses 100% of a single core.

Adding every group on the http://download.eclipse.org/releases/indigo/ site takes 2m 30s, in which I can do nothing but wait and monitor the process, as I must be ready to add the next item, when the loading i done.

This is especially annoying as Bug 275999 makes one do it every time a little change is necessary .

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a new target definition file.
2. Add a large software site (eg: http://download.eclipse.org/releases/indigo/)
3. Select all items, by checking them one by one.

So this is only while you have the 'add content' wizard for software sites open and are adding individual software items?

I had to select a lot of items (30+) before I saw any slow down and I do not see 100% cpu use.  The performance does get worse though.

I experience the same slowdown in the p2 install wizard, so the problem is 

Since this also happens in the p2 install wizard, I'm going to move this to p2 UI.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
