slow parsing #159

Closed mclearc closed 7 years ago

mclearc commented 7 years ago

This may not be a bug, but I have a moderately long bib file (about 4200 entries), which takes several minutes to parse on initial start-up of helm-bibtex. Any suggestions about how this might get sped up? It may be relevant that I'm using Zotero and Better Bib(La)TeX to generate the bib file. Thanks.

Updated the gist. Thanks again for the suggestion: now I can immediately see what each file is :satisfied:

You're welcome. Glad to hear that you found a satisfying solution. At some point in the future there will hopefully be a more efficient solution for the file field in helm-bibtex. Unfortunately, I find it increasingly difficult to devote time to these things.
