The Netbeans “Go To File” feature (accessed with shift+alt+o) is extremely slow compared to the same feature in Eclipse, which is fast enough to do as-you-type matching. It seems that Netbeans is searching my entire project every time I return to this dialog. I updated to the latest Netbeans and this is still happening.
Am I doing something wrong or missing an option somewhere? Is there any way to speed this up or have it be instant like the Go To File function in Eclipse?
