vr/isearch-forward very slow #27

Closed smcallis closed 5 years ago

smcallis commented 6 years ago

I'm having a problem, I've got vr/isearch-forward bound to C-s, which works fine at home. But on my work computer it's very slow, there's a noticeable lag from keypress to keypress. Is there any way to speed that up? Looking at the code it looks like it spawns a sub-process but I'm not sure exactly how often...

Hi

Check a similar issue here:

Could this be the reason?

That's almost certainly the reason, there's a lot more cruft in my work python. Is there any way to amortize that process cost? Maybe keep the sub-process open and pipe requests in/out?

Yes, something like this would be the solution. I'll close this as a duplicate of https://github.com/benma/visual-regexp.el/issues/52
