Slow save in Eclipse

I’m using Eclipse 3.5, with Java 6u20, Tomcat 6.0.28, and I have a big problem:
Everything worked normal, and somehow (I don’t know how) Eclipse started to be very slow.

When I edit some file, Eclipse freezes, and show me a info window, saying Saving………

And that last for about a minute or two, and than tomcat start to publish files. Till recently this worked ok (everything was finished in 3 seconds).

I don’t know what has been changed in project, and I have tried using different eclipse, tomcat, Java,….

When I turn on System processes it shows a system process:
System: Updating status for Tomcat….

What could be wrong? Any hint guys?

Answer

To tell you what solved the problem: We installed Eclipse 3.6 and there we turned on system processed in Process View. Above process System: Updating status for Tomcat… stood process Calculating Decorations.

We turned off all decoration, except SVN decoration (Window-Preferences-Label decorations) and saving works fine now.

Apparently there is some limit in number of files of project above which Eclipse is behave strange?
