eshell very slow when the shell layer is installed

MRFaria commented 7 years ago

Description :octocat:

Eshell becomes slow when the shell layer is switched on and even simple commands like 'ls', or even standard file auto-completion can take a couple of seconds to complete.

Reproduction guide :beetle:

Start Emacs Navigate around big directories and run ls

Observed behaviour: :eyes: :broken_heart: There can be delays or around 1-2 seconds when executing simple commands.

Expected behaviour: :heart: :smile: eshell without the shell layer just instantly returns from ls and cd

For me, eshell works fine locally. But it's extremely slow with TRAMP over ssh in a folder with git. Just pressing Enter takes about ~5sec.

Seems like this was cased by eshell-prompt-extras, see https://github.com/kaihaosw/eshell-prompt-extras/issues/20 which is fixed now. You should update emacs packages to get the latest version.

@MRFaria I guess this issue can be closed now?
