I just tried with a fresh ~/.eclipse directory and a fresh workspace
-- and with both OpenJDK and GCJ -- and it still takes a very
perceptible amount of time to open files. Here's a video:

Using the fresh ~/.eclipse should have got rid of the third-party
plugins, but I still have a few Fedora plugins -- CDT, mylyn, and
subclipse. Maybe those are an issue ... can't test much more at the
moment but I'll fiddle around later.

Not much help yet, unfortunately. Maybe I should look upstream and see
if anyone's reported similar issues.
