I've been experiencing the same issue for a couple of days now. Took me a while to narrow it down to this plugin. It's a nice plug-in and I'm ooking forward to use it again after a fix.
In order to add frontmatter links to the graph, I process each note to see whether it has any links in the frontmatter when a note is reindexed.
I have never experienced performance problems with this, however, after my finals next week I can look into making this better performant.
The only times that the entire vault is told to reindex by this plugin is when it is enabled, when the "Add to graph" setting is toggled, and when a file is renamed and "Automatically update frontmatter internal links" is set to true.
I'm not sure its necessary anymore when a file is renamed, so I'll look into removing that after my finals, but once again, I never experienced lag from this so I assumed it was fine.
For now, if you'd like to use the rest of the features, I recommend that you disable the "Add to Graph" and "Automatically update frontmatter internal links" settings until it is fixed.
I think it can be caused by syncing. Dunno how or why.
Good lucks for your exam !
I use Obsidian Sync and I've also experienced reindexing of the cache every time I launched Obsidian, although I haven't suspected this plugin until now.
I've had the same problem for a couple of days. Really like the plug in and hope this can be fixed :) Thanks for your efforts in any case
I also use Obsidian Sync and have narrowed down the issue to this plugin. Every time the app loads, Obsidian re-indexes
This also happens when syncing via iCloud, not just Obsidian Sync. Every time I open the mobile app (iOS and iPadOS) with this plugin enabled, it shows me that Obsidian is re-indexing the entire vault.
While this doesn't cause me any lag, it is mildly annoying.
Disabling the "Add to graph" config option solves the issue for now 😀
I have same issue with this plugin and can also confirm that disabling the "Add to graph" config option is a workaround.
@Trikzon today I debugged the obsidian code around parsing of markdown and creating/updating of metadataCache. I found that you modify metadataCache records after its copy is saved in IDBDatabase. It causes inconsitency between memory content of the metadataCache and it's persistent copy in IDBDatabase.
There is a chance that this inconsistency causes need for reparsing of markdown files and long startup times.
May be the solution would be to not listen on metadataCache change but directly hook on metadataCache.saveMetaCache(...)
method. If you modify the cache (add links from frontmatter) before the origin implementation is called, then the memory and IDBDatabase will be consistent and you do not need to search for links in frontmatter with each start of obsidian, because it will be loaded from IDBDatabase correctly.
Are you going to try it? What next steps do would you suggest/like?
Hello ;
On my vault, the plugin will add a big loading time during the cache reading. After this, Obsidian will ALWAYS reindex the vault.
This bug appear on Mobile and PC, vault is sync using Obsidian Sync.
I tryed with every plugin disabled, keeping only frontmatter links, and the issue persist. Note : My vault contains around 300 notes, with PDF, image, js files...
