Category: None Group: None >Status: Closed Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Tom Howland (wambamboozle) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: painfully slow Initial Comment: Thanks for a terrific application. Mercurial is slow to deliver status for large repositories. Using Tortoise HG this pain is felt in surprising places. While I was traversing my third party library I found traversing up in the directory hierarchy was very slow. If I went in and renamed .hg to sv_hg, all was speedy again. It would be a good thing if Mercurial HG were to decouple or make assynchronous the display of mercurial status with directory traversal. In other words, can't we have regular explorer and then, when hg status gets back, the icons are updated? Again, thanks for all your wonderful work.

But I have done some work over last two days to make overlay icons _appears_ to be asynchronous. With this the overlay icons shows up a bit slowly on large repo, but user can continue to navigate inside the Explorer window, which is a big plus. I've tested with netbeans repository of about 16K files. Overall I am pretty happy with the responsiveness of the Explorer windows. There are still work to do, but it's looking fairly promising. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Steve Borho (sborho) Date: 2008-02-11 14:28 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=12062 Originator: NO I'm thinking we should add a user-wide configurable like this: [tortoisehg] enable_overlay = explorer.exe, totalcommander.exe, myapp.exe and just ignore overlay requests from applications not in this list. This is on top of whatever performance improvements are being cooked up. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Tom Howland (wambamboozle) Date: 2008-02-11 14:23 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=222814 Originator: YES I forgot to mention -- I was traversing the directories in the eclipse for adding external jars to my build path -- that was why I was surprised that mecurial hg was affecting me. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=968357&aid=1891441&group_id=199155 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Open Source Business Conference (OSBC), March 24-25, 2009, San Francisco, CA -OSBC tackles the biggest issue in open source: Open Sourcing the Enterprise -Strategies to boost innovation and cut costs with open source participation -Receive a $600 discount off the registration fee with the source code: SFAD http://p.sf.net/sfu/XcvMzF8H _______________________________________________ Tortoisehg-develop mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/tortoisehg-develop
