Is there any way to improve the reverse engineering performance? I have been trying the reverse engineer class diagrams from some large packages (70+ classes) with a lot of associations, dependencies, and inheritance. After adjusting the Eclipse jvm size to 128MB+ minimum - 384MB maximum, I was able to generate the diagram, but the process never appeared to stop executing even after the diagram had been rendered as my CPU was pegged at 99% for hours afterwards. I finally managed succeed by refactoring out about 20 classes into another package (though I would have rather done this in the UML tool itself. Is there any way to improve the efficiency of the UML tools without refactoring packages to make them of a small enough size? Also, are there any recommended size of packages, or a point where the preformance noticeably drops off of the tool. I like the tool a lot for use on new code, but this constant hangup of my processor when working with large diagrams hampers using it with our existing code base.
Thanks,
Scott
