Package: dictionaries-common Version: 1.20.5 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation? I faced a problem editing my big .org file (2mb+) with flyspell-mode enabled. I edit it every day, regularly mistype and get words of one or two letters that are wrong in Russian and cause flyspell work slow. This one-liner produces "good" file to reproduce the bug. perl -e 'print(((join " ", ("met and") x 10) . "\n") x 30000)' > t.txt Typing "nd" at the end of file gives a huge pause even on a fast computer. But "mw" or "md" does not give pauses because they are not substrings in this file. It is repeatable with emacs -Q. * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? So exact sequence is $ emacs --version GNU Emacs 24.3.1 $ emacs23 --version GNU Emacs 23.4.1 $ perl -e 'print(((join " ", ("met and") x 10) . "\n") x 30000)' > t.txt $ LANG=C emacs -Q t.txt Then in emacs: M-x flyspell-mode RET M-> nd SPC 'emacs23 -Q t.txt' works the same way. LANG=C affects regular words because default dictionary is Russian on my system so without LANG=C all words ("met" and "and") are considered misspelled. But it does not affect huge pause at the end. * What was the outcome of this action? Huge pause when emacs does not react on keys except C-g. Word "nd" is colored as misspelled after the pause. C-g stops emacs internal thinking and I could work without waiting but word "nd" is not colored as misspelled word. * What outcome did you expect instead? I expect it to work as fast as with other words like "md" or "mw" that does not produce a pause and are colored immediately. I tried to patch flyspell-word-search-backward and flyspell-word-search-forward functions from flyspell.el replacing search-backward with word-search-backward and search-forward with word-search-forward (perl -pe 's/\(search-/(word-search-/' ). It solved the problem but I do not know what it broke. I expect problems with this solution because I do not know if flyspell's meaning of word is the same as emacs' one. I think it is described in flyspell-get-word function that is called after search-* in the patched functions. flyspell-duplicate-distance variable on its own could mitigate the problem but it changes the behaviour so I do not want to use this variable.
