Komodo IDE 9.0.1, So slow on Linux

I am running Komodo IDE 9.0.1 build 87208, platform linux-x86_64 on Centos 6.5.

About 2 weeks ago, the editor and debugger has slowed down. The syntax check takes about a minute to respond. The debugger takes a long time to startup.

I am running a powerful system: 32GB memory, 8 cpu @ 2.4Ghz.

Hm, anything in your log and memory usage stats? (Help - Troubleshooting - View log file / Memory Usage)

Are you working with a mounted remote drive by any chance?

You could try disabling Editor > Detect when networked files are changed outside of the environment preference to see if that helps.

Here is my part of my logs the warning repeat many time throughout the session:

Experimental Features

Here’s a snapshoot of top while I am editing Perl code. I am not running Perl or Python programs.

Careyh,

I don’t currently have any remote drive mounted. The code files are on the local drive in Git repositories.

I am running IBM’s BigFix Client.

Try turning off Syntax Checking and see if that helps, Edit > Preferences > Syntax Checking.

It looks like you’ve got a run away Perl process.

If that doesn’t help could you do Defmans suggestion of giving us the Memory Usage measurements provided by Komodo?

  • Carey

The performance is the same without Syntax checking.

I am unfamiliar with Defmans.
