As I sift through this stack of papers I'm noticing it's repeating much more often than twice ...The section on the profiler comes out to 210 pages when printed !!

Hi Stephen, This one is really puzzling. To reproduce it, open up Help, select a topic with subtopics, and select "print selected topic and all subtopics", which appears under the printer icon at the top of the TOC. Once you do that, just page through the generated page to see that it contains extra copies. At first I thought it was related to our adding mid-page anchors to the TOC, but it happens in other places, too.

This turns out to be an Eclipse bug. I have filed it at https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=212918

The hope is to get this fixed in Eclipse 3.4

Possible for us to mention in release notes? I can see a number of people freaking out over 100's of pages being printed out hehe. :)
