Performance

[ScottMattes]

Running on an ancient PC, 320Mhz and 128 RAM, I reaaly notice 'something' after every change I make - a long, 1 second or more, pause.

Say I hilight something and type something else in and then try to move the cursor down a bunch of lines. It seems like the cursor will move for 2 or 3 lines and then PAUSE and then move again.

Is PLSD reparsing the file?

What version of Windows are you running on that thing? My experience with most version of windows even back to nt are they run like crap on a machine with those specs. I would think you would have issues with many apps just because of specs of that machine. Lets face it that machine is considered ancient by today's standards.

However much like SQL and PL/SQL-- Bad code will seem to run just great on an server with no users on it but run that same code when the server is getting hammered by users and that same SQL and PL/SQL code runs like crap. So maybe this machine will show some areas that the PL/SQL Developer code could use some optimizations.

It could be the Code Contents pane. You can verify this by disabling it.

In version 6.0 the parse operation is performed in a background thread, so it will never interrupt you.
