I am facing "weird" things as well. Mainly performance drop when doing (very) simple things like adding | in front of a table line, changing to the next table column, marking tasks as DONE, archiving tasks, and so on. I have no idea how to debug those issues since the profiler-report does not seem to look strange. This is why I asked here for an Org-mode syntax checker a couple of days ago. There does not seem to exist such a thing. I am afraid, that I have to do the painful task of commenting out separate sections of my Org-mode configuration (2000 lines) and check whether or not the behavior changes. -- mail|git|SVN|photos|postings|SMS|phonecalls|RSS|CSV|XML to Org-mode: > get Memacs from https://github.com/novoid/Memacs < https://github.com/novoid/extract_pdf_annotations_to_orgmode + more on github
