The problem I think is that b/c of the way IDEA works it needs to parse EVERY file for refactoring, auto-imports etc.
Hani, I'm using 2000 to develop on (which should have FileWatcher2k.dll?) but the problem is my files are stored across the LAN on a Linux box _and_ I have CVS activated. However it seems that from ~509 to 513 there was a huge performance slow down - suddenly when IDEA sync'ed files (after every Ant run it seems to do this) a HUGE amount of network traffic is seen on the hub next to me. -mike Mike Cannon-Brookes :: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Atlassian :: http://www.atlassian.com Supporting YOUR J2EE World > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On > Behalf Of Christian Sell > Sent: Tuesday, November 13, 2001 2:39 AM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: RE: [Eap-list] Build 513 excruciatingly slow? > > > I dont understand.
