Bug ID: 478502
Summary: project plugin is slowing down kate start
Classification: Applications
Product: kate
Version: 22.04.1
Platform: RedHat Enterprise Linux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: application
Assignee: kwrite-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: gerhard.stran...@airbus.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
***
When launching kate, it takes "forever" before the GUI comes up.
***
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
Unfortunately, I don't know what to do.
OBSERVED RESULT
When launching kate, it takes "forever" before the GUI comes up. When I do an
strace, I can see that kate is opening every file in a directory with lots of
them, probably the last directory in use. Sometimes it's doing a git ls-remote,
causing the git server to overload if everyone starts multiple kates in
directories with lots of files.
EXPECTED RESULT
quick start of an empty kate, no matter how many files there are in some
directories that are not currently in use.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows:
macOS:
Linux/KDE Plasma: RHEL 8.8
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: plasma-desktop-5.24.7-1.el8.x86_64 from the EPEL repository
KDE Frameworks Version: ?
Qt Version: qt5-qtbase-5.15.3-1.el8.x86_64
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
It seems to be caused by the project plugin, this helps:
sed -i s/kateprojectplugin=true/kateprojectplugin=false/ \
/home/$LOGNAME/.local/share/kate/anonymous.katesession
Unfortunately, this is user-specific, so everyone would have to do that. How do
I properly disable the project plugin for everyone?
