My default indenter was XML (I'm not sure if it was the default or if I changed it, and I don't really understand the differences between most of the options). With a default C style indenter the paste freeze is much shorter - something like 4 seconds instead of more than 10 seconds - but still noticeably large for a ~200 lines block, even if lines are very long. It also adds less of the unexpected indentation - but still does. When I compare this to grabbing an equivalently large (in character count) block with much more reasonably sized lines - which is 6000 lines long - pasting (with indentation on paste enabled) takes a much longer time, with the C style indenter - about 20 seconds (and also there are no unexpected indentation). My conclusion is that the "indent on paste" is just slow - very likely because it is very expensive ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I also compared pasting into my main IDE - Eclipse - which does a lot of formatting on paste (not just indentation) and it handles all the cumbersome paste tasks relatively quickly: I couldn't get it to delay more than 2 seconds, regardless of content size and shape. So maybe it isn't inevitable that formatting during paste is slow, but I'm done barking up that tree ;-) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
