Nasty Eclipse freezes on 2.8 RC1 build

Hello,

I just upgraded my Scala environment (installation and Eclipse plugin) to
2.8 RC1.

I now get constant Eclipse freezes (almost on every keystroke) making my
whole environment virtually unusable. After perhaps a minute (or two!)
Eclipse un-freezes until I type maybe 1 or 2 characters then it freezes up
again. I don't know anything about Eclipse internals or the Scala plugin
but it sounds like some kind of problem with the code that's trying to do
the "real-time" validity checking. (Can I disable this feature until it
works better?)

Anyone else have this problem (or even better the solution)?

The best place for questions like this is the new scala-ide-user
