CC: Expensive calls on opening new files

<< < (5/5)

rickg22:
If you use Code::Blocks as an editor, then you can disable the plugins. Codeblocks has an option, /profile=<profile_name>. You can specify profiles for usage and disable the plugins in those profiles. But I don't remember where to set that up... :(

dmoore:
yes, I use personalities frequently -- an excellent feature. I'm not pushing this point to aggravate you: it just seems like a simple fix to block those editor event hook calls during file opens as well as project opens...

rickg22:
how long is your file in question? Can I have a copy for later tests?

dmoore:
any large (4-5mb) syntax highlightable file will do (e.g. html, xml or , if you can find one, cpp file). I'm pretty sure editorhooks aren't registered on a per editor basis that discriminates by filetype. In fact it might be better to test on a non-cpp file to distinguish cycles spent on real parsing from redundant cycles spent in the editor hooks. for what it's worth, with CC on the scintilla events probably don't add more than about 30% to opening times, but given the simplicity of the fix I think it is worthwhile.

it would be even better to use a buffered loading model (like SciTE) that progressively adds to the file content, so that files appear instantaneously (integration with plugins would be tricky)

rickg22:
So in other words you're editing a 4MB html file???? O.O

Ok, now I need to know. What exactly is the EXTENSION of the file you're editing? Also, are you trying to tell me that the editorhooks are called 4 million of times, one per character?
