Re: [Wikitech-l] Editing module in the wiki editor lead to overloading resouces of processor
When you next experience the issue, you can try to debug it: 0. You should be viewing the page using MediaWiki's debug mode to make the results easier to interpret (add =1 to the page address). Note that this will make pages load slower. 1. Open the Firefox developer tools (Ctrl+Shift+I, or Tools → Web Developer → Toggle Tools). 2. Switch to the "Debugger" tab. 3. Click the "Pause" button. Screenshot: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/F10524704 (this is Firefox 57 on Windows 10, but the layout should be similar everywhere) This will pause the execution of JavaScript on the page and reveal the script that was executing (if nothing is currently executing, it will pause at the beginning of the next function to execute). You can right-click the file name to copy/reveal the full path of the script. For example, in this screenshot the execution paused inside the code to toggle the blinking cursor in the CodeMirror editor: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/F10524713 (Please also take a screenshot of the entire debugger when filing a task about this, the "Call stack" on the right is very useful if the script itself is large.) Afterwards click the "Resume" button (in the same location as "Pause") to let the page continue executing. Try doing this a few times, in case multiple scripts are running, to increase the chance of seeing each one. -- Bartosz Dziewoński ___ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l

On the other hand, the new VE-based wikitext editor mode does not seem to have any obvious off-switch or other method to allow It's All Text to function. -- Brad Jorsch (Anomie) Senior Software Engineer Wikimedia Foundation ___ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
[Wikitech-l] Editing module in the wiki editor lead to overloading resouces of processor
Hi, As I feel I didn't gathered enough information to create a phabricator ticket, I send that here in order to obtain some guidance about what would be interesting to provide and how to get it. I can say that most of the time, I'm currently under Fedora 26 with Firefox 56, but that's probably not much relevant information. So the problem is: when I edit a module, sometimes, but not systemically, the window at some point become slw. Like, there are large latency between typing and displaying of the resulting action. And indeed, for some reason, one processor core is around 100% due to a firefox thread. As a side note, I would be interested with any advice to ease my module edit process, as the direct in-wiki edition and test become quickly frustrating. When I edit a basic wiki text, I often use "it's all text" which enable to edit in my usual text editor. But even this option won't work with the widget of code edition (the same problem occurs with "syntax highlight" extension).
