I must wait sometimes for seconds for IDE to respond. I did a thread dump. I hope it helps. There is probably some bug in looks, or in VCS module. Please check it.
Created attachment 11356 [details] Thread dump
My experiance is that combination of projects and vcs has drastic impact on performance. I don't know why. The FTD shows that vcs fires annotationChanged events which causes looks to redraw names of file nodes. The other active thread which asynchronously redraws nodes (probably invoked by events fired from previous one) spends its time in reading the registry (looking for looks and instantiating them), this should be improved by caching in NamespaceSelector (Hrebejk has this almost done).
IDE is slow even if CVS filesystem is not used. BTW see issue 36011
Now the situation should be better - LookSelectors are rewritten and properly cache Looks, issue #36011 is fixed. Could you please verify that IDE is faster now or describe what exactly is slow? (or make more FTDs) Thanks.
[200310060000] IDE is definitely faster
Verified
