Hi, I have been noticing a strange heisenbug. From time to time, Org starts eating CPU for certain specific tasks: org-end-of-line, fill-paragraph, folding or unfolding trees, or adding/changing properties with org-set-property. However these happen only after I have been using Org for a while.
I think I also see similar CPU eating symptoms when I have buffers editing version controlled files. I have auto-revert-mode enabled for files under version control, I think that is related. I'm not entirely sure though, I don't know how to narrow it down either. I say it is cache related since all this magically goes away, once I go to the top of my current tree, and call org-element-cache-reset. However, once the symptoms start showing, it happens more frequently despite my cache resets. It's very hard to reproduce this though. I see it when I have been using the same Emacs session over several days. I always run emacs as a daemon, so sessions lasting a week or more is quite common. To see the symptoms I have to wait about half a week to a whole week, hence the hard to reproduce comment. However, once the symptoms show, it gets bad rather fast. I end up restarting when the need to reset the cache gets too frequent. Any thoughts? Thanks, -- Suvayu Open source is the future. It sets us free.
