Apparently when I double click a project, to close it or to open it, as just happened right now, I get the dialog below: (The quality you are seeing isn't what I uploaded, btw). I definitely am NOT opening a large file, just a project, so this warning, to me, makes no sense at all. It doesn't even explain what scalibility is, no link nothing, and it marks [Yes] as the default, suggesting there are few or no consequences. This page did some explaining, but not much: https://mcuoneclipse.com/2012/08/07/eclipse-editor-scalability/ (by an uninformed person as it says "Eclipse is best IDE in the world"). Anyway, scalability is apparently there to maintain performance, but performance is OK (with 8GB), and the least of my worries. Now when I got this dialog several weeks ago, I remember that I chose Enter here (for being the DEFAULT). Which resulted in hours lost because I could no longer get the demo to download (to the device), or debug with breakpoints, whatever. Nothing would work, until a collegue unmarked this unrelated and spontaneously marked setting. That is the end of the story, hopes it helps some poor soul. Imagine what Eclipse has become when development for an embedded device is already having "scalability issues", it eclipses one's mind.
