It's single-threaded so I think if you managed to hit the spot when parsing happens, you could see the freeze (even though it seems to be much faster on linux) > Interesingly, when I generate tags using ctags meson.build there is no such > lag, it finishes in about 0.05 seconds. Interesting observation - the reason might be that we don't use the same regex library as the current ctags version. I think we discussed this in https://github.com/geany/geany/pull/3878 where it seemed it didn't make much sense to introduce the extra files from the gnulib (https://github.com/universal-ctags/ctags/tree/master/gnulib) that ctags uses. But if using a newer regex library helps here, it might be an argument for using it. I'll try. -- Reply to this email directly or view it on GitHub: https://github.com/geany/geany/issues/4179#issuecomment-2568118657 You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.
