Codelite start times

Post by ColinTaylor »

Windows 10, Codelite 9.0.1, Intel core i7-3770 (8 cores each at 3.4 GHz)

I think codelite startup times have got a lot worse recently; the most recent codelite build is taking 30 seconds from startup to be ready to use (and the splashscreen remains visible for 23 seconds).

I assume you mean 9.1
Can you temporarily rename the folder %appdata%\codelite and launch CodeLite?

Also, can you compare it against the 9.0 release?
You can get it from here:
http://codelite.org/downloads/codelite/9.0/


Thanks

Yes I did mean 9.1.0 - apologies

When I renamed C:\Users\CT\AppData\codelite, startup time wasn't hugely affected

The splashscreen remains visible for about 23 seconds (as before)
Then almost immediately I see the "Welcome to the setup wizard" dialog

I just closed the ability to browse folders in codelite.org apache, so here is a direct download link to the previous version:
http://codelite.org/downloads/codelite/ ... -9.0.0.exe

Can you please do this (CodeLite 9.1):
- Settings->Preferences->Misc->Log->Log Verbosity->DEBUG
- Close CodeLite
- Start CodeLite again and once startup has completed, post here the file %appdata%\codelite\codelite.log

For me, CodeLite starts pretty instantly, but CodeLite installed on SSD drive
I will try to install CodeLite on a normal disk and see how this affects its startup time
