Codelite is running extremely slow

Post by GeorgeWahba »

I'm running Codelite on Linux RH5, 16-core server machine.
The project i'm working on has ~1000 file.
The problem is that navigation is extremely slow (open file, go to implementation .. etc.)
the .tags file size is ~24M.

I tried disabling the SymbolsView plugin but nothing new.
any help help on that?

Thanks
George

Thats a reasonable number of files.

Are all of your files are located under the local file system? do you have files located under network drive?
Have you tried running strace on codelite exe?

Well, all files are on the same file system (local).
After some trials, I found out that the reason for this slowness is when you set
Settings->Tag options->Coloring->"Color workspace tags" checked
with any of the following sub-items checked (enum, prototype, struct, enumerator, member, function, macro and variable)

This results in file load time expansion.
I unchecked all these sub-items and the application is running smooth now.
