EGit perf and file saving problems [message #731965] Mon, 03 October 2011 14:57 Go to next message

Hello,

We want to migrate a project from CVS to Git, and our developpers are familiar with CVS plugin for eclipse.

Our project is consistent (several year history, and about 30000 files).
(we can of course limit the history to 1 year or so).

But any operation with EGit(synchronizing, fetching, pushing, ...) is much slower thant with command line or SmartGit.

The blocking point is that when working on a set of projects (Git tracked) under Eclipse, file saving operation is now taking several seconds.


Is this a known problem ? That EGit do have some problems handling big (file numbered) projects ? Is there anywork on this point ?

Thanks in advance for your help,

As you describe it, yes, but there are known issues with the decorator
and I've occasionally stumbled on very bad performance when dealing with
new projects. Take a look at bugs.eclipse.org and see if you find
anything similar to your problem, if not add a new issue. Remember to
add so much information that anyone can actually reproduce your problem
easily.

Also remember to test test nightly builds if you experience an issue.

I've found only this one:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=346079
However it is not the issue that explicitly addresses the 5-sec freezing during file saving.
Enyone found it?

Did you try this with a recent nightly build from [1] ? The git decorator was reimplemented recently to address some of the performance issues.

I tried the nightly build and it's much faster for everything, including fetch, push and especially the label decorators. But it's always faster if you reduce the recursion level in the preferences.

I set it to off or 1 with egit 1.1
With 1.2 nightly I use the same settings to be safe, but I'll try to revert to the default of infinite and see how it performs.

I don't get which preference allows to define a recursion level ...

Under Team > Git > Label Decoration. I've hardly thought of this. It smells
"workaround".
