I have a bit of gcode only 90 lines long that has a recursive subroutine as its heart that takes over a minute to load. And about 42 hours to run on my micromill. 2. At 2.3 million lines of code, you might be running out of memory & hitting swap. However, with the overall at 70 megabytes, that doesn't seem likely if it has enough to install and run from the gui's. You could monitor that by running (h)top on another console window. I believe it is the "1." above that is slowing the loading. -- Cheers, Gene "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.

Re: [Emc-users] Big files
If you are hitting swap, adding more real memory can help. If it is the pre-scan that is slowing things down, only a faster processor will really help. Even a slow disk drive or SD card doesn't seem like it would cause the slowness you mentioned. -- The Planet: dedicated and managed hosting, cloud storage, colocation Stay online with enterprise data centers and the best network in the business Choose flexible plans and management services without long-term contracts Personal 24x7 support from experience hosting pros just a phone call away. http://p.sf.net/sfu/theplanet-com ___ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users

Is it possible that this behavior could be made optional? For example, there's no point in doing this check on a file that is known to be good.

I will try to use swap.

Re: [Emc-users] Big files
The problem is the Axis interface, not the interpreter. I believe that there is a special comment format that will disable previewing parts of the file. Doing that will speed things up -- at the cost of not being able to preview those parts.
