Code::Blocks is really slow. How do I fix it?

(1/3) > >>

indietom:
I've been using code::blocks for like a year without problems but recently code::blocks has been running really slow. If I minimize the window and open it up it takes like 30 seconds until it's usable and if I type code::blocks freezes and then the text shows up and no other program I use acts like this. Is there any way to fix this?
Could it have something to do with the fact that I only have 17 gig left on my hardrive or is there a program that is know to interfere with code::blocks?

Thanks for any help.

Codeblocks Version?
OS?
How big is the project?
CPU usage of C::B?
How big are the codefiles?

indietom:
Oh, maybe I should have added more info. I'm running version 12.11 on windows 7. I only have 9 files and about 1900 lines of code.

does it slow down on every project or only with one?

Recently I experienced C:B being very slow after Code Completion plugin enabled.
I do not know we are sharing the same problem but here is what I learned:

Recently I experienced major slow down with my C:B. After investigating it turned out the performance problem is related to the Code Completion plugin. After further investigation I was able to locate the root cause of the problem which was in the .cbp file using relative (to the .cbp location) path to the source code files location in the project.
As a workaround I edited the .cbp file and replaced all the path referenced to absolute path and this fixed the performance problem.
The problem started when I decided to keep all my C:B project files in one folder external to all my existing projects.
I would like to know if anybody else experienced such problems and if there is a way to instruct C:B on the project creation to use absolute location for the source code files.
