Description

IDE typing is sluggish, and locks up for a few seconds every few typings. Moving the mouse seems to speed up the locked time! This started happening at a certain point, and cannot be improved by restarting Delphi or the computer. Looking at the Windows Taskmanager, when the IDE locks up, the processor is at 45% with the bds.exe.

This is especially the case when selecting text in the IDE.

I also received an Access Violation error twice now, see attachment. This locked up Delphi and I had to restart it.

Perhaps the size of the code is large, it is about 20000 lines?

Steps to Reproduce:

Working in a package project

Hi Gerhald,
it might be an upgrade issue.
Try it after installing update2.
It resolves most of the memory leakage problems.

Thx for the repsonse Yusuf, but I already updated to update 2. I notice that with a smaller number of code lines the response is a lot better!

I have the same problem. Also using Update 2.

Have the same problems.
My project has ~ 900,000 lines of source code (~1000 modules) as well as uses dozens of precompiled packages.
Sometimes disabling of code complete options helps.
