Hi Bastien,

Can you narrow down the problem and describe a simple way to reproduce
> it?


Sure, sorry if I wasn't specific enough.

I have a specific wiki/ directory that has ~500 org files. There are an
average of ~20 org headlines per file.

I'm trying to take advantage of org-wikinodes' camelcase linking feature.
So, say I have a headlines like this in one of those 500 org files:

* MyPIMSystem

And in another org file in the same wiki/ directory I write:

"... as I do in MyPIMSystem ..."

The MyPIMSystem gets converted to a wikinodes link, and when I click it,
considering the wiki cache is nil, wikinodes will start searching the
current directory's org files for the a file with MyPIMSystem headline
(this takes around ~10secs), and even though there exists the org file with
the "MyPIMSystem" headline in the wiki/ directory, wikinodes just doesn't
find it, and shows the prompt asking me if I want to create it.

I must also say that I modified the org-wikinodes-which-file function
slightly from this:

>
> (defun org-wikinodes-which-file (target &optional directory)
>   "Return the file for wiki headline TARGET DIRECTORY.
> If there is no such wiki target, return nil."

> directory))
>   org-wikinodes-directory-targets-cache))
>   (cdr (assoc target (cdr (assoc directory
>  org-wikinodes-directory-targets-cache)))))

To this:

(defun org-wikinodes-which-file (target &optional directory)
>   "Return the file for wiki headline TARGET DIRECTORY.
> If there is no such wiki target, return nil."
>   (setq directory (expand-file-name "/Users/myself/org/wiki")) ;

>   (unless (assoc directory org-wikinodes-directory-targets-cache)
>     (push (cons directory (org-wikinodes-get-links-for-directory
> directory))
>   org-wikinodes-directory-targets-cache))
>   (cdr (assoc target (cdr (assoc directory
>  org-wikinodes-directory-targets-cache)))))


Why? Because I have files in other directory levels that I still want to
link to the wiki, so basically I want to force all wikilinks to point to
nodes in org files that reside in this wiki/ directory only. But this is a
simple change, I don't think it would cause any kind of issues.

Also, after I try clicking in a wikilink, and the cache is nil, just after
this function tries to build the cache, and when I evaluate the
" org-wikinodes-directory-targets-cache" var, instead of the expected
data-structure containing filenames and nodes, I get this:

(("/Users/myself/wiki"))

I've tested with the unmodified "org-wikinodes-which-file" func + a
"org-wikinodes-scope" setting = directory, and I get the same thing. I
looks as if the amount of files and data is the problem.

Thanks in advance,
