In an Eclipse IDE, we can have a number of projects in the ‘Package Explorer’. Those projects can be either in ‘Open’ or ‘Closed’ state.
An ‘Open’ project will consume a lot of memory. Also ‘Open’ projects take up build time especially when we try to ‘Clean’ the projects in the workspace. So, it is always better to ‘Close’ a project.
