open `Installed Packages` blocks atom #551

Open despairblue opened 9 years ago

despairblue commented 9 years ago

I have 174 packages installed and when opening the installed packages view I could actually make myself a coffee since it renders atom unusable for about a minute :smile:

Could also be related to this, maybe

Have you tried to build Nuclide from source?

despairblue commented 9 years ago

Nope, should I uninstall all nuclide packages before attempting this?

despairblue commented 9 years ago

Or does it install that packages into some other path and open atom with another "user profile"? Not quite sure what difference building the packages should make.

EDIT: nevermind, I read the README now.

Sterbic commented 9 years ago

Uninstall everything through the GUI or by rm -r ~/.atom/packages/nuclide-*, than try installing from source. I am not sure myself about the difference but it worked for me.

despairblue commented 9 years ago

That worked, the package list loads in about 2 seconds now. So it's safe to assume that nuclide-installer is the culprit. Still wondering if it's something that needs to be fixed only there or as well here. :confused:

Sterbic commented 9 years ago

I don't think it's directly a problem with nuclide-installer as it only runs apm install over the 13 packages required by nuclide.

mauriciord commented 9 years ago

Same problem for me. Installing with ./scripts/dev/setup is perfect now, but i want the apm install nuclide-installer. Did you tried sudo apm install nuclide-installer ?

@thedaniel I suspect that Atom is making too many requests / UI updates when you have a large number of packages installed. When I run process._getActiveRequests(), I see a ton of stuff in flight.

I think a batch API of some sort would help.
