Hi,
When I leave Komodo opened several days, my computer is slowing. I look to the processes runing and I see kotclint.exe with a lot of memory used (sometimes close de 1Go). I don’t understand why this kotclint is running all the time and why it takes so much memory.
By the way, Komodo can eat sometime 700Mo of memory. Does-it affected by the number of opened files ?
The only way to resolve this issue is to quit Komodo and kill kotclint process.
Hi @CRo, I’m not sure why kotclint would be running constantly. I can’t find a reference to it in the code base so is it perhaps an addon you installed for Tcl syntax checking? That is crazy that it’s running at 1 GB.
As for Komodo gradually slowing down, that’s a known issue that could have numerous contributing factors, not least of which is the very old version of Mozilla we’re running on. That issue is not likely to go away any time soon.
Hi,
I did’t installed specific Tcl syntax checking (or I don’t remember…). Does Komodo IDE uses internal tcl syntax checking program ?
My preferences about TCL syntax checking are:
enable background syntax checking after 2000ms (default value) : enabled
enable checking of mixed end of line: enabled
clear Lint results on each change: disabled
check syntax for TCL: enabled
I force syntax checking with TCL 8.5 version
By the way, I’m currently using Komodo IDE 12 and memory usage shows me :
Komodo : 1007Mo
Kotcllint : 1113Mo
And I noticed that Python.exe process is also running at 400Mo… And I don’t use Python language.
It’s amazing !
What I did since monday : tcl debug, simple programming, some researches, something like 20 tabs opened, source code control enabled (with SVN subversion).
So nothing amazing…
If I close and re-open komodo IDE 12, memory is about 200Mo but kotcllint is still opened with same memory size (~1100Mo)…
Here is my memory usage (I don’t know if it is usefull…): Explicit Allocations
