I just started using the Eclipse Oxygen.2 Release (4.7.2) on Windows 10. The editor lags behind when scrolling up and down using the up / down arrow keys. In other words, when I move the carriage vertically outside the view, the text does not scroll smoothly. But line numbers scroll smoothly. There is less open-text delay than Java files. I tried to test the spell, but that did not help.
Problem resolved: The scroll delay has disappeared recently, and the editor works more smoothly than ever. I think this happened after I received a notification in Eclipse that updates are available, and I clicked on the notification and made updates.
