Finding the builder that makes a build slow requires starting Eclipse with -debug and reading the performance log. The new org.eclipse.ui.buildmonitor bundle contributes a view that lists the run count, total time and slowest run of each builder per project. It switches builder tracing on while it is open and restores the previous debug options when it closes. The view only shows data once builder tracing can be toggled at runtime, which is what the builder tracing change provides. Assisted-by: multiple AI agents and layers of automated tooling 🤖

Finding the builder that makes a build slow currently means starting Eclipse with
-debugand reading the performance log. This adds a neworg.eclipse.ui.buildmonitorbundle with a Build Monitor view that lists the run count, total time and slowest run of each builder per project, sorted by total time. The view switches builder tracing on while it is open and restores the previous debug options when it closes, so no restart is needed.The view relies on builder tracing being switchable at runtime, which is what #2802 provides, so it shows no data until that change is merged. The bundle is not yet listed in the platform feature, that needs a follow-up in eclipse.platform.releng.aggregator before it ships in the SDK.
The bundle compiles cleanly with Tycho. It has not been exercised in a running IDE together with #2802 yet, hence the draft.
