I have a project that uses VCSCVS mounts for all source paths. If the machine is disconnected from the cvs repository (eg: network is down), the file takes extra time to load from local storage. Once the file was loaded, I tried to make 5 cut/paste changes of between 2 and 3 lines each to the file and determined that after loading, scrolling/editing the file is between 5 and 10 times slower than with the CVS repository connected. Further, while debugging the edited application, debugging operations were excruciatingly slow. Somewhere on the order of 20 to 40 times as slow as when the repository is connected.
Adding the PERFORMANCE keyword.
Are you sure, that this is not a problem of Windows? Do you encounter the same problems on Local Filesystem? Please can you try to mount a filesystem via "Mount -> Local Directory" and test whether you encounter the same problems? When you're disconnected, please turn the "Offline Mode" property of your mounted CVS filesystems to true. This will assure, that no automatic refreshes will not be performed.
Well, I can not imagine how VCS modules slows down source scrolling when you're disconnected. Are there any VCS commands running or pending in the system? Anyway they would probably fail very fast. Are other applications also slow? Closing as works for me, I did not encounter a problem like this.
Long time no response from Eric. I assume that turning on "Offline Mode" property has helped him. Therefore verifying the issue as worksforus.
Resolved for 3.4.x or earlier, no new info since then -> closing.
