TextAutocomplete too slow
Submitted by powery on Monday, 12 May, 2008 - 14:04
TextAutocomplete (0.9.5) on JEdit (4.3pre14) is too slow for large files (3 MB). 'Start for buffer' takes about 2 minutes. If Ctrl+B is used, it's fast.

Options:
max. words: 10000
min. prefix: 2
remember: 2
belongs to word?: Character.isLetter(insertion) || insertion == '_';

other default

Any ideas?

Hello,

I recently discovered jEdit, and I am very, very happy with it. By far the best text editor that I know of.

I'd like to use the TextAutoComplete plugin for all my buffers, but somehow it is extremely slow when it is started. It takes about a minute or so to initialize on a buffer with ~750 lines, mostly 80 chars wide. This is on a Core2Duo with 2.5 GHz and 3 GB RAM.

Any suggestions for speeding up the plugin would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
