Hi,
I had some trouble with completing tags, where the already set tags
were wrongly identified. I have dug this down to a problem with
caching.

with org-element-use-cache=t and org-use-tag-inheritance=t
--- Org
* headline 1 :tag1:
** headline 2 :tag2:
--- end org

When invoking org-set-tags-command (and quitting),  on headline 1,
then headline 2, then headline 1 again, "tag1" is no longer shown as
one of the existing tags in the minibuffer. This is because it has
erronously been assigned an :inherited property in the
cache-representation for headline 1 when inherited tags were
calculated for headline 2. This happens in org-get-tags, where
inherited tags are parsed from the cache and given the :inherited
property, but unfortunately this is done to the same string objects,
so that this property is added in the cache tree both for the taglist
of headline 1 and headline 2.

(cl-copy-list cached-tags) is used there, but only copies the list and
not the string objects.

A solution that seems to work for me was to change
 (cl-copy-list cached-tags)
to
(mapcar #'copy-sequence cached-tags)

(found it here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/47794586)

I don’t know if this is the best solution though.
Perhaps this is needed also in org--get-local-tags where a similar
thing is done? (but only the fontification seems to matter there)


Best,
Anders Johansson (who is otherwise as mentioned in an earlier
discussion very appreciative of org-element-cache)

I now noted that this differed in Ihor's org-fold-universal-core
branch which I use and main (org-get-tags has an extra argument
fontify for org-fold). But I believe the caching issue is relevant on
both branches (and in either case a topic for Ihor).

Best,
Anders

Hi Anders,

I have also been seeing some issues when adding/modidying heading tags
(C-c C-q), and I was able to narrow it down to the element caching
mechanism.

Issue: Org mode/Emacs hangs kind of indefinitely when I do C-c C-q,
but that doesn't happen each time.

Once I set org-element-use-cache to nil, Emacs stopped hanging.

Looking at your bug report, I believe that the issue I am seeing with
cache and Org tags could be very much related. So thanks for
submitting this.

Fixed.

Thanks for the detailed analysis and the solution! I have seen this bug
myself in the past, but was not able to reproduce reliably.

Best,
Ihor

Yep, it is a common bug. I have also fixed the issue in my branch now.

By the way, I am almost done with preparing merge for org-fold. Once I
figure out an issue with pixel string-width in older Emacs, it should be
properly ready to be merged(;

Best,
Ihor

The issue here had nothing to do with hanging. You are probably seeing
yet another bug.

By hang, do you mean that even C-g does not restore responsiveness?

Ihor

Hello Ihor,

ok.

> By hang, do you mean that even C-g does not restore responsiveness?

Typically, within a second of doing C-c C-q, I would know that the
buffer is going to freeze, and if I do C-g soon enough, Emacs would
recover in a second or two.

But if I wait 5-6 seconds and then do C-g, it could take minutes to
recover, and I often do pkill SIGUSR2 from the terminal to get back.

Sorry, but since then I set org-element-use-cache to nil once that
issue comes back. It's usually that I am between something and I don't
think of getting a backtrace on C-g (Now I have made a note to self to
provide a backtrace in this thread when that issue repeats).

---

Right now, I set org-element-use-cache back to t, did M-x
toggle-debug-on-quit and did a couple of C-c C-q in a 10k line Org
buffer .. this time, it's responsive and snappy :|

I'll keep you posted. Thanks!!
