Crazy CPU usage

[adamchainz]

In the two days since installing tabnine-sublime, I've heard my macbook's fan running on hard three times. Each time, when I checked Activity Monitor, the culprit was TabNine and I've had to kill it. There isn't any related output in the sublime console that I can see.

I have some large repos open, like https://github.com/django/django .

My package dir shows version 2.0.2 of the binary:

I've been experiencing the same here, just having a small size project open causes tabnine to use CPU excessively for a long period.

Same here. TabNine constantly at 90%. Is there any way to disable TabNine on a particular project?

[adamchainz]

@kinoute I don't believe Sublime providers a generic way to disable a package per project. It would need to be built in TabNine and it doesn't seem to have such a setting

@zxqfl I've had less incidents of high CPU recently but still one the end of last week. I see I'm now on version 2.0.4 of the binary. I have stuck with TabNine though because it's completions are just so much better, it's helping me autocomplete whole lines of code!

TabNine uses 196% of my CPU 😄I am on Macbook Pro Retina, 13-inch, Early 2015 and the fan is running constantly. Even when I am not actively coding..

I'm also experiencing this. It would be great if there were a Tab-Nine command to globally stop/start it.

Just saw it taking CPU again, killed it, and got some more logging from the debug panel:

TabNine expected prefix "" but found prefix "N", falling back to substituting from word beginning: "N"
Traceback (most recent call last):

This is still happening. Often seems to happen when I change a few hundred files at once.

I would LOVE an option to quickly disable/enable tabnine globally. Right now I need to keep Activity Monitor open to occasionally kill it when my computer starts to turn into lava.

[breck7]

Still getting CPU spikes. I'm close to just saying screw it and uninstalling TabNine until there's a better strategy here.

[breck7]

Warning: don't use TabNine during high winds and dry conditions. It may cause your computer to burst into flames.

I'm hitting 200-300% usage in OSX using my 2019 Macbook pro 15.

Anyone found a work around?

Anyone found a work around?

Other than uninstalling it, no.
