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

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.

If this is the reason, then this bug should be fixed. But I don't have such experience in my system(WinXP, Latest Nightly build).

Wyrm:
I also run into occasional slowdowns during code editing. My platform: Linux Mint 14 with KDE, C::B version 12.11 compiled from source on Dec 8 2012,
I never bothered reporting it though because my C::B version is kinda old. On top of it, there is always an opportunity to save everything and restart C::B with no problems.
That said, I am not willing to sacrifice relative paths. I often need to work with several branches and I don't want to hard code absolute paths in project files. I'd rather restart C::B.

Pecan:
As a curiosity, could you tell us what your Symbols tab "View:" setting is.

It will be one of the following:

Current files symbols
Current projects symbols
All local symbols
Everything

stef1:
In my case the Symbols tab is set to Current file's symbols.

Pecan:
Change the setting to "Current Project's symbols" and see if the problem goes away.

ImageCraft found a quirk in CalculateCommonTopLevelPath() which sets the top level path to the root of the hard drive. This causes CodeCompletion to start all searches from the root of the hard drive. You might have hit this problem.
