This Bugzilla instance is a read-only archive of historic NetBeans bug reports. To report a bug in NetBeans please follow the project's instructions for reporting issues.
When I click open project it hangs the IDE- the java process for the ide sits at 50% cpu usage and it doesn't do anything else. I have to kill the process and start it up again. I think it has something to do with the ide scanning files to set what folders are netbeans projects, not 100% sure though.
Please provide thread dump (or better - couple of them) from the hang, see: http://wiki.netbeans.org/GenerateThreadDump. Provide also IDE version and JDK version. Thanks.

I've attached separate unzipped thread dumps to be better accessible.
There is no deadlock in those thread dumps, it looks that directory chooser is waiting for something that takes too much time on windows. Dafe, have you seen such thread dumps?
Dafe, please evaluate. There are two thread dumps showing AWT EQ waiting when executing some dirchooser code. Thanks.
I have the exact same issue on my Windows XP machine. Let me know if you need an additional thread dump from me.
TM=TBD -> still waiting for evaluation...
Evaluation: Dumps show that code is running somewhere deep in Win JDK code, namely WinShellFolder code leading to native calls. All that projects as well as directory chooser are doing is asking for file properties (isDirectory, getNodeText() etc). We need more information and way to reproduce this issue in order to do anything. Is there anything special in your filesystems? Some projects data on remote storage across the net? Some special filesystems?
After some hunting in bugster, I think I found that this is duplicate of JDK bug http://bugs.sun.com/view_bug.do?bug_id=6744953, marking as such. Reporters, if you have any reproducible scenario (and some answers to my previous questions), please post them here, thanks.
