RPGLINT Slow

[HenryMiller]

I'm using RPGLINT Extensions with basic settings. I've found, especially in the last 15 days, that RPGLINT extension is really slow after a while and I have to disable it if I want to continue editing my local RPGLE source code. Immediately after it has been disabled then source editing works absolutely fine.

@HenryMiller So I can get an idea of how to recreate this issue, how much source code are you looking at (line count) when you encounter these issues. Thanks!

[HenryMiller]

@worksofliam Source code is not that big , between 100 and 800 lines. It's slow at scrolling as well. Sometimes it's slow when saving.

Just one thought. Is it slow because RPGLE source code is in a directory inside a main project which includes a FrontEnd and Backend directory and RPGLINT is scanning the whole source project members (Frontend=Angular Backend=RPGLE). For testing purposes I copied one source member into my desktop folder and editing from there looks much faster.

I attach an example. sq000s.txt

Ok, thanks for letting me know of your scenario. I will see if I can recreate it.

Hi, did you get any chance to recreate and test it. Thanks
