Hi all, As some of you may have noticed, Spyder's editor is still suffering of performance issues when using code completion and calltips. Those features -which are powered by 'rope'- were sometimes really slow: for example, the first appearance of code completion list on NumPy could take 10 seconds on an average machine. This is not acceptable and would legitimately lead some users to disable these features to avoid being slown down when typing code.
As I was getting tired of these performance issues, I decided last week to write a simple test (see the 'rope_profiling' folder in Spyder sources) and see with the 'rope' team if things could be improved. After some iterations with the 'rope' project owner, we found a solution and a patch has now been integrated in Spyder's development version: http://code.google.com/p/spyderlib/source/detail?r=d71858d8206c7423be9e49c4c2e032a546bb9856 The results is that code completion performances have been greatly improved (on a NumPy example: before the patch, 11 seconds, after the patch: 200ms...!). Enjoy! (and please report any related bug) -Pierre -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "spyder" group. To post to this group, send email to [email protected].
