Slow Hise on Linux Mint

[bendurso]

I installed Linux Mint 20 on a 2011 MacBook Air (4GB RAM, 120GB SSD) and compiled the latest HISE commit with Faust and IPP. After several attempts, I succeeded, but HISE is running extremely slowly. Is there something I should be aware of? I believe the computer is decent enough to run HISE without issues, especially since it worked fine on the same Mac when it was running macOS.

@bendurso Add this to the preprocessor definitions for your HISE build (not your project) - USE_LINUX_FONT_HANDLER=0

Debug builds won't work with this, it's only for release builds.

@d-healey Thanks! I recompiled it, and I think it's better now. I also reinstalled the necessary packages for HISE because some of them might not have been installed. It's working much better now.

On another note, can you compile DSP networks as DLLs? On macOS, it lets me, but on Linux, I can't seem to exit the export wizard. Even after finishing the process, it keeps sending me back to the wizard.

@bendurso Yeah, ignore the wizard on Linux (I might have to remove it there). If you cannot setup your Linux system to compile stuff, then you're not worthy of using Linux.

[bendurso]

@Christoph-Hart oh don't be so hard on me haha.

I always ignored the export wizard because I know how to setup HISE for exporting (I understand you added it due to the number of people who reported the missing IPP).

However, in Linux, it won’t let me compile dsp networks, as it always redirects me to the wizard.

I haven't tested recently but never ran into issues before. I disabled the export wizard in settings.

[bendurso]

@d-healey For some reason, it doesn't appear in my settings on Linux (commit bc6a0cd1). However, I do have that option in a commit exported from my Mac two weeks ago.

@bendurso Go to ~/.hise then follow this - https://forum.hise.audio/topic/10088/can-t-compile-plugin-after-update-v4/2?_=1728678834595

Thanks! Now I can compile :)
