Parsing in KDEvelop is extremely slow most of the times. Only cleaning session cache and restarting make it reasonably quick again. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Load a project of size > 1e5 LOC 2. Select "Reload" in the project context menu 3. Open the parsing progress bar. OBSERVED RESULT Parsing of each file takes about 10 seconds. EXPECTED RESULT Parsing takes not longer than compiling the same project (i.e. it has to be ~10 times faster). SOFTWARE VERSIONS (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: 5.14.80 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.51.0 Qt Version: 5.11.1 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Changing "Compiler for paths" in the project settings sometimes help to recover the parsing speed.
> 2. Select "Reload" in the project context menu Or make a branch switch which updates many files.
Changing C++ standard in the project settings results in the slow parsing too.
Thank you for reporting this issue in KDE software. As it has been a while since this issue was reported, can we please ask you to see if you can reproduce the issue with a recent software version? If you can reproduce the issue, please change the status to "REPORTED" when replying. Thank you!
It is still a problem. CLang-based code model in Qt creator, for example, parses faster than it takes to compile the code.
