Performance issues #24

(On macbook air 2014 baseline model, 4g ram 1.3 GHz Intel Core i5)

When I have 3 atom windows open, and I close and reopen atom, git-timemachine seems to do some work that freezes the whole computer for a good 10 minutes (literally). I'm not sure what work it's doing during startup.

Really love this plugin otherwise, but as it is I can only have a single atom window open to avoid the startup freeze.

Hmmm... strange, yeah it shouldn't be doing anything at startup except registering menu and actions

chenglou commented 8 years ago

Sorry let me clarify: the startup time, as shown in "time-cop", is fine. It's the stuff that it actually runs after the startup (but without me even toggling on the view) that I suspect is incredibly expensive, e.g. whichever git command.

I highly suspect it's some git command, because no plugin (or app for that matter) successfully froze my mouse before, lol.

Confirmed latest version (1.5.1) does not do any git operations until the time machine is first toggled on.
