I have to move back to Netbeans 6.1.
The longer I have 6.5.1 open, the progressively longer the project scanning seems to take. Eventually it uses huge CPU and doesn't end, I can't even shut it down.
This problem does not occur in 6.1. (I had the same problem in 6.5, I was hoping 6.5.1 would fix it).

Even more disappointing is the fact that it won't be addressed for 6.7 as well.

http://www.netbeans.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=134990

My experience is that the scanning in 6.7 is even worse than in 6.5. The initial delay is sometimes shorter after startup but then I get 5-10 seconds delays waiting when opening a single class Sad

And that is on a small project (~1000 classes)

I don't understand it either - it has 30 votes, most people have been
bitching about it for a year now, and it still doesn't get fixed Sad Sun
must've already cut a lot of resources to make themselves look better
financially to the suitors (first IBM and now Oracle).

If you haven't voted for this issue yet, please do.

Has anyone tried the scan-on-demand module that the last poster to the
bug pointed to? Does it help?

It looks like Vita may have found the issue, waiting for daily build to check see

What I found out is that most of the scanning seems to be the search for tasks.

If you switch to show only the todos for the currently open file then scanning time was reduced in my case (anyway still long time). My projects are not big, but I have at least 8 open at the same time (visible in the project tree).

I have disabled the "Java Tasklist" completely, so the only scanning I have to wait for is the Java scanning for classes.

You have encountered a known issue: http://www.netbeans.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=161367
Unfortunately, though this issue is being worked out, nobody knows when it will be corrected. Future updates on this issue will be made available. Thanks.

Might I suggest that all of us having these problems run NB with a terminal
window open and anytime it's scanning and blocking work that you get a thread
dump, and post that thread dump to this issue as a commment. I think this will
start to make it more clear exactly where the problems are and specifically what
netbeans is reacting too.

Might I also suggest that the NB team plan for 6.7 to use Thread.setName() on
threads that are doing scanning with the name of the file/directory that was the
stimulus for the scan so that both users and developers can get a better idea
about what things are prompting these activities?

Issue 161367 seems to be fixed with 6.7 release, for issue 134990 it seems that you have to wait for 6.8.
