Eclipse is too big under Gnome (Fedora 23)

To make eclipse looks more nicer (similar look as on Windows machines) perform following steps:
  1. Create new eclipse launcher and pass GTK version 2 as parameter
    [Desktop Entry]
    Encoding=UTF-8
    Name=Eclipse IDE
    Exec=/opt/eclipse.4.5.2/eclipse --launcher.GTK_version 2
    Icon=/opt/eclipse.4.5.2/icon.xpm
    Type=Application
    Categories=Development;
    
  2. Create configuration file ~/.gtkrc-2.0 with following content:
    style "gtkcompact" { 
      font_name="Sans 8"
      GtkButton::defaultborder={0,0,0,0} 
      GtkButton::defaultoutsideborder={0,0,0,0} 
      GtkButtonBox::childminwidth=0 
      GtkButtonBox::childminheigth=0 
      GtkButtonBox::childinternalpadx=0 
      GtkButtonBox::childinternalpady=0 
      GtkMenu::vertical-padding=1 
      GtkMenuBar::internalpadding=0 
      GtkMenuItem::horizontalpadding=4
      GtkToolbar::internal-padding=0 
      GtkToolbar::space-size=0 
      GtkOptionMenu::indicatorsize=0 
      GtkOptionMenu::indicatorspacing=2 
      GtkPaned::handlesize=4 
      GtkRange::troughborder=0 
      GtkRange::stepperspacing=0 
      GtkScale::valuespacing=0 
      GtkScrolledWindow::scrollbarspacing=0 
      GtkExpander::expandersize=10 
      GtkExpander::expanderspacing=0 
      GtkTreeView::vertical-separator=0 
      GtkTreeView::horizontal-separator=0 
      GtkTreeView::expander-size=8 
      GtkTreeView::fixed-height-mode=TRUE 
      GtkWidget::focuspadding=1 
    } 
    class "GtkWidget" style "gtkcompact"
    
    style "gtkcompactextra" { 
      xthickness=2 ythickness=2 
    } 
    class "GtkButton" style "gtkcompactextra"
    class "GtkToolbar" style "gtkcompactextra"
    class "GtkPaned" style "gtkcompactextra"
