Ran tree command in home directory - hang #288

Closed k4rtik closed 10 years ago

k4rtik commented 10 years ago

This should be a general bug here, since finalterm generates context-sensitive menus for all output, when a command like tree is run on a folder containing a lot of files, it takes a lot of time for it to return any output. The CPU usage could be seen to go to around 99% during this time.

It should ideally start returning partial output immediately, and may take it's time to show the complete output.

Please clarify. There is currently no Termlet for the tree command, so Final Term definitely does not try to generate menus for its output.

Looks like I wrongly assumed that "finalterm generates context-sensitive menus for all output".

But the bug remains, running tree on a big folder like my home takes a lot of time.

I see. In that case, there is already such a general performance tracking bug: https://github.com/p-e-w/finalterm/issues/150. I'm closing this as a subset of that bug.
