Description gentoo_daemon 2009-05-21 17:15:39 UTC
I have been experiencing this particular issue for a few releases. I can't open/import large C++ projects for example
the Linux kernel. Netbeans starts to open the project and stalls once it gets to 50%. I can leave it running all night
with no success. Memory usage pegs. Running with 6.7 Beta, I'm consuming 399/400 Megs. 

I really appreciate your guys' work.
Comment 1 Vladimir Voskresensky 2009-05-21 17:34:54 UTC
hi,
could you, please, try the latest trunk build of 6.7? There were several important fixes in mentioned area.
But you need to give more memory for linux kernel.
What is your JVM bits? 32 or 64?
In case of 32 you can try with additional NB startup option -J-Xmx2G
on 64 you can try with 3Gb
Comment 2 gentoo_daemon 2009-05-21 21:17:33 UTC
Thanks,
I believe the JVM bits is 32. I will try the command line option with a trunk build.

Comment 3 gentoo_daemon 2009-05-21 22:37:06 UTC
So it looks like I wasn't able to reproduce this issue in the trunk. I'm going to leave it open, but you may close it 
if you feel its fixed. 
Comment 4 Vladimir Voskresensky 2009-05-22 11:34:00 UTC
I feel it as fixed :-)
we have made a lot of improvements in memory && performance in 6.7
It will be very helpful if you can give your feedback about 6.7 :-)
Comment 5 avp 2009-05-22 12:44:34 UTC
I agree with Vladimir, 6.7 has improved performance from 6.5.
But I work with Qt framework and sometimes (from build to build) I try create project from this library (26000-30000
files). Creating new projects are in few hours
And this tries are unsuccessful :(.
So, I propose don't close this issue.

vv159170, 
I have fallen in love with NetBeans since I first started using it, release 5.5. No other IDE comes close to the rich
set of features that netbeans offers. The only place I look for improvement is performance, and it looks like Beta 6.7
is quite promising from that aspect. It is noticeably faster than 6.5. However there is room for improvement especially
with large projects with many source files. I'm looking forward to this release. 
Comment 7 Vladimir Voskresensky 2009-05-23 13:08:34 UTC
Hi, gentoo_daemon,
thanks for your feedback :-)
good news is that the release is expected to be 15-25% faster than beta. 
We are tracking this in issue 162401, so, please, let me close it as duplicate and, please, put all your further
concerns there. 

Thanks,
Vladimir.
