Description Darin Swanson

The Java text tools associated with the JavaPlugin has a partition scanner 
which has a fast partition scanner. 

This last scanner keeps a reference to the last document "connected" even when 
all editors have been closed.

There's no API to remove the document or reset it by providing null.

This can result in most of the state of the last debug session remaining in 
memory.
The InstructionPointerAnnotation (which has a reference to a stack frame) is 
retained in memory via the retention of the removed annotations associated 
with the annotation model of the document.

My mistake...ignore comment #3...sorry

We'd need an additional API method to free the state. No action for 3.0.

Adding my name to the cc list as we are now tracking performance issues more
closely. Please remove the performance keyword if this is not a performance bug.

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. As such, we're closing this bug.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it and reopen this bug. 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.
