    I found the workaround. The problem is in the soapui build in browser. When I modified soapui startup shell script file and the options file to disable browser, it works well.

    The steps on http://www.bencode.net/blog/2015/01/25/soapui-freezing-osx/ worked for me (on OS X 10.10.3):

    Start ‘Activity Monitor’ and Force Kill your dead soapUI process. [Or use Command-Option-Escape to force quit it.]
    In Finder, /Applications/SmartBear/soapUI-5.0.0.app > Show Package Contents.
    Edit /Applications/SmartBear/soapUI-5.0.0.app/Contents/java/app/bin/soapui.sh.
    Uncomment this line# JAVA_OPTS="$JAVA_OPTS -Dsoapui.browser.disabled=true". [In other words, remove the "#" to stop it being a comment.]
    Edit /Applications/SmartBear/soapUI-5.0.0.app/Contents/vmoptions.txt.
    Add -Dsoapui.browser.disabled=true.
    Start soapUI.

kolisko's post to uncomment the 'JAVA_OPTS="$JAVA_OPTS -Dsoapui.browser.disabled=true"' line worked for me.  I'm running Ubuntu Linux v16.04.2.  I installed from SoapUI-x64-5.3.0.sh.
