Freezes when searching in large files
Posted: 17 Jul 2019 11:54
XY freezes between files when using Find in Files to search in large (text in my case) files. Some files are few hundred MB. When searching a file, everything (UI) freezes for minutes and XY is unusable.
Is there a way to make XY refresh the UI and its events queue during searching in a given file? The search function like this is barely usable unless you search in bunch of kilobyte files.
In this case I search among *.* (but only text files in the dir) and 10-symbol Contents content.
P.S. Almost totally unusable - I search in about 10GB worth of text files for a string, and for about half an hour XY is frozen! The files are on a SSD and just copied and the SSD is barely loaded.
P.S.2. There maybe something wrong with the search function.. I managed to cancel the search without killing the process. I was using Normal search. Then I used agent ransack for the search and it finished searching in just few seconds.
