| RE: [cdt-dev] Performance issues with indexer/refresh on large scale project |
|
Hi
Achim, I
am also working on a big project ~30k files. In CDT 6 there are 2 indexing
types: full / fast. On this project, fast indexing took about ~45 minutes, full
indexer ~60 hours. Please refer to https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=282510
for details. Which
indexer are you using? In case you are using full indexer maybe you should try
fast indexer instead. Additional
related bugs: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=294864 https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=284318 Thanks, Yevgeny

Of Bursian, Achim Hi
all, I'm
running into serious performance problems with a ~40k files C++ project
(standard make project on Solaris/Sparc with ClearCase as SCC). Importing and
indexing the project takes hours, which is at least partly caused by a lot of
unnecessary files being opened. Three questions: *
How can I programmatically disable the automatic indexing for a period
of time, and reenable it later (I found that it's faster to do a refresh
without the indexer running, and doing a full indexer run afterwards)? I'd try
to do that in a startup plugin, which would disable indexing, import the
project, refresh everything, then run the indexer. Maybe that could speed up
things... *
I would like to exclude a complete part of the project hierarchy from being
seen by Eclipse and CDT. I thought the "filter" setting ("Source
folder exclusion pattern") on the CDT source folders property
page would do just that, but no. I excluded the "test/" folder
and some others with the filter, now it is no longer shown in the project
explorer. But monitoring the system with Solaris
dtrace shows that the whole <projectroot>/test folder
hierarchy is still scanned (stat system call) during a refresh, and a lot of
files there even get opened (Imakefiles, *.txt, *.xml). This is quite bad, as
it contains 20k files that are only testcases and data stuff. Anything I can
do? *
Is there any general guideline for setting up such a large scale project with
CDT, anywhere? Thanks!
