Subject: ido slow for outline path completion
Date: Fri, 12 Dec 2008 13:04:03 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20524da70812121204x9a23736g5a03f8a04d8213d5@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
ido for refiling works very well and makes refiling easier
by orders of magnitude. Thank you Eric. Thank you Carsten.
In org 6.14, I find that full path completion (which is the
only way that org-goto can use ido) can take 22-45 seconds
before it shows you the prompt. This is on a 1ghz mac and
about a 300k org file with lots of nesting.
Is there a way to speed this up? Offhand I imagine:
- allow org-goto to limit the depth of the tree. i do
this for org-refile to depth 5. this takes 3-5 seconds.
- to achieve this i show only the basename. is it
possible with the full path in org-refile?
- of course, it would be better not to have limits and do
profiling/caching/..., but i don't know what the issues
could be. is it ido or org? is it sorting?
Here are my settings for ido, goto, refile, and remember
refiling:
(ido-mode 1)
(ido-everywhere 1)
(setf ido-confirm-unique-completion t)
(setq org-completion-use-ido t)
;;slow (45 seconds before prompt shows, a week or two ago
;;2008-12-12). but this is what i want. would be even
;;better with uniquify type disambiguation.
(setf org-outline-path-complete-in-steps nil)
;;slow with ido 2008-12-12. takes 22 seconds on about 300k
;;org file on 1ghz mac. use 'outline for searching and
;;org-occur and navigation. i prefer olpath.
(setf org-goto-interface 'outline-path-completion)
;;t does not work with making help stuff one window. i think this
;;is moot unless for some reason you want outline.
(setf org-goto-auto-isearch nil)
;;for speed, set level to 5 and set this to nil. for full
;;path completion, set level to be unlimited and/or set this
;;to t.
(setf org-refile-use-outline-path nil)
;;this is as slow as setting org-goto-interface to
;;olpath completion.
;;(setf org-refile-use-outline-path t)
;;i would use this functionality for both goto and refile if there
;;were a uniquify type disambiguation scheme.
;;(setf org-refile-use-outline-path 'file)
;;this is the most candidates i can handle the slowness of. it
;;takes 5 seconds or so on about 300k org file on a 1ghz mac.
(setq org-refile-targets '((org-agenda-files . (:maxlevel . 5))))
;;can be re also. this is for refile and remember.
(setf org-reverse-note-order t)
;;default is to use refile interface, which is what i want
;;(setf org-remember-interactive-interface ...)
Thanks.
