I am having a problem with Java and Minecraft. My main single player game has become corrupted. From where I am standing, I can travel any direction and all mobs stop moving and I am unable to interract with the world at all. I eventually get the end of the chunk and can just walk off the edge and fall. When I exit MC, java continues to have a process running utilizing 70-80% of my processor (i7-2600K @ 3.4GHz).
I am on Windows 7 64bit OS with 8G of ram. I decided to try a brand new world just in case there was some backward compatability issues with 1.7.9 and my save game. However, after progressing a while, I am running into some slow down and the occasional block that will not want to be mined unless I do it a few times. After exiting MC, java again has a process that continues to run but at around 15% utilization.
I have uninstalled Java and reinstalled the 64 bit, 32 bit and various combinations of version 7 as well as 6 all to no avail. (just 32 bit, just 64, or both at the same time)
I would really like to fix my original save if possible, but I at least want to get the game to be playable. If I start a brand new game, start it and then immediately exit the game, all java processes turn off like they should. It is only after quite a bit of play time that something seems to be happening. I have tried different JVM Arguments (the latest was -Xmx2048M -Xms2048M) in an effort to see if it was just not enough memory being assigned but nothing I have done has been able to fix the problem.
If your world got corrupted you can try to repair it with MCEdit. Open the offending world in MCEdit, press 'ctrl-i' and select 'Repair regions' in the dialogue which pops up. Once this has completed, save your world and exit MCEdit.
To download MCEdit, go to http://www.mcedit.net/ and choose the version appropriate for your OS.
OK.. MCEdit fixed the original save, so thank you for that. I opened it up, ran around for a couple minutes and exited the game. However, javaw.exe still was running at 15 even after MC had closed out. Is using MCEdit just a stopgap fix for now until whatever is messed up can be fixed?

MCedit can remove the source of your corruption. About java not exiting I do not have a definite answer but perhaps you could click on "edit profile" and changing the Java path to java.exe instead to see if it resolves your issue.
