             Summary: Background scanning process needs a rethink
                 Key: NETBEANS-168
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-168
             Project: NetBeans
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: ide - Performance, java - Platform, platform - Execution
    Affects Versions: 8.2, Next
         Environment: NetBeans 8.2, Windows 10 x64
            Reporter: Christian Lenz


Often, while cloning, switching branch, merging, opening etc. etc. NetBeans 
starts Background scanning for changes, but it is not real background, because 
everything what you want to do then, like changing the branch, commit, push, 
pull, open project, delete or whatever, is blocking by this task and you can't 
cancel it, because it is essential.

Either we need to rethink about this process like to make everything or most of 
the stuff doing things in parallel or the task should really be cancelable. It 
is a pain in the ass for big projects when they start to scan for changes. 

It is a real world case because you acan see it when you work on NetBeans 
modules.


Cheers

Chris
