viasfora making Visual studio input laggy ?

Open amoldeshpande opened this issue 4 years ago • 5 comments

I always have VsVim and Visual Assist X loaded in my visual studio. I've been noticing really bad input lag for a while now, and finally decided to try to figure out which extension exactly was causing it.

This is all C++, BTW.

What happens is that every time I type a keystroke, the lag before the characters appear on the screen is noticeably annoying. Other places where this lag manifests is

  • typing #include in a new file causes multiple seconds of hang before I get list of headers to complete.
  • In general, auto completions are also very slow.

Now, since I only got the extension for the rainbow braces, I did not think viasfora could be causing these issues. So I tried disabling VsVim and VaX, but got nowhere.

It was only when I disabled viasfora that Visual Studio became great again. No input lag, no completion lag etc.

I re-enabled viasfora, turned off keyword-related options (all the ones in that section, to be precise) and the performance is tolerable. It still does not feel as snappy as when the extension is disabled, but I am trying to live with it right now because the rainbow braces are really handy for me.

I am using Visual Studio 2019, 16.6.3

Let me know if I can do anything to help you troubleshoot.

I was having frequent lockups (that required an IDE restart) and very bad input lag with C++ Intellisense. After disabling Viasfora, all those issues went away and the IDE feels snappy again.

Same here, Visual Studio 2022 C++ hangs for about 6 seconds or even more.
