Custom workspace = slow HISE
-
I'm using a custom workspace (JSON below) and it's causing HISE to take about 2.5x longer to open and to compile scripts. Usually HISE takes about 3 seconds to open but with this custom workspace it takes about 8.

Any idea why the custom workspace would slow down HISE?

@d-healey if you tell me how to load this into my rig, I'll give it a go and see what happens.
-
Thanks!
Probably the quickest way is to just load my entire editorData.json file. This goes in hise's config folder, make sure you backup/rename yours before you put mine in there though.
-
your custom workspace json just makes HISE crash over here.

@dustbro How did you load it?

@d-healey I take that back... Accidentally deleted the config instead of replacing
I dropped it into AppData/HISE on my pc and HISE appears to be working properly. I don't notice any sluggishness.
-
Did HISE load up at normal speed? That's where I'm noticing the most slowness.

@d-healey I didn't notice a difference.

@dustbro Hmm, must be something else with my config then. Thanks for testing it, enjoy your new custom workspace :p
-
Do you have any markdown panels in your layout? Because they will initiate a "hidden" HISE instance for the dynamic help things.
-
@Christoph-Hart I don't have one in the custom workspace but I do have a markdown editor tab in the scripting workspace. I've just removed this and relaunched HISE and the slow startup issue was still there.
I tested renaming my
editorData.jsonand HISE opened up (with default layout) and normal speed.Unrelated, but I also noticed that load JSON is greyed out when you right click on the top level of the custom workspace
-
Has the current project a lot of sample maps / midi files? They are initialised on startup so it might be the reason if you are working on a big project (Percx as about 1200 samplemaps and Midifiles so it takes 3-5 seconds if I start HISE with the percx project).
-
New empty project here, 8 - 10 seconds to open. Maybe a GNU/Linux only issue?
-
I just tested on Windows and no problem there so I think it's specific to my OS and possibly to my general setup. I'll try on my other GNU/Linux system.
-
Definitely seems to be OS specific, I just tested on Linux Mint and had the same issue as my main Debian system.
-
Just tested on MacOS, works fine...
-
Try compiling the plugin version of HISE and then load it in a DAW and close reopen the window. If the lag is also happening there you know it's something related to the UI.
-
@Christoph-Hart Good thinking, I'll do that now
-
The plugin version doesn't seem to read from the same editorData file as the standalone version. Each time I open it it's reset to the default layout, even if I make changes to the layout in the plugin.
