Develop - Latest NeoTree is painfully slow.

[synic]

Expanding and collapsing nodes, searching is now a LOT slower than it used to be.

This appears to be spacemacs specific. It only happens in directories with a lot of git history.

On vanilla emacs with neotree and projectile installed, it is still fast.

EDIT:

It appears to be the combination of neotree and helm-projectile. If I install only these on vanilla emacs, the problem occurs.

This is because spacemacs sets neo-vc-integration to 'face'. From theneotreegithub issues - authorjaypei`:

Yes, this feature is indeed slow, so it is closed by default.
It can speed up when NeoTree support the sub-tree refresh feature.

Setting neo-vc-integration to nil solves the issue for me. Since the author admits the feature is slow, maybe it's more appropriate to make the default nil in spacemacs until this sub-tree refresh feature is available?

@synic Thanks, you saved my day. To be more specific, in .spacemacs, I need to add

(defun dotspacemacs/config ()
…
(setq neo-vc-integration nil)
)

I'm trying to disable this by putting (setq neo-vc-integration nil) in spacemacs' config but I still see the highlighting and it's still slow. Is anyone having the same issue?

[synic]

Where are you setting it?

That's odd. It ended up working, but only if I put it first in my config variables, like this:

(defun dotspacemacs/config ()
  "Configuration function.
 This function is called at the very end of Spacemacs initialization after
layers configuration."
  (setq neo-vc-integration nil)

  (setq indent-tabs-mode nil)
  (setq-default tab-width 2)
  (setq evil-shift-width 2)
  (setq js-indent-level 2)
  (setq ruby-indent-level 2)
  (setq html-indent-level 2)

  (setq web-mode-code-indent-offset 2)
  (setq web-mode-css-indent-offset 2)
  (setq web-mode-enable-auto-indentation t)
  (setq web-mode-indent-style 2)
  (setq web-mode-markup-indent-offset 2)
  (setq web-mode-sql-indent-offset 2))
  (setq web-mode-code-indent-offset 2)
  (setq web-mode-markup-indent-offset 2)

  (setq js-indent-level 2)
  (setq css-indent-level 2)
  (setq css-indent-offset 2)
  (setq js2-basic-offset 2)
  (setq js2-indent-switch-body t)
  (setq evil-shift-width 2)

If I put it on the end, right after evil-shift-width, it doesn't work. How strange.

I have the same issue with neotree, setting the neo-vc-integration to nil doesn't help.

[AlbertGazizov]

placing neo-vc-integration to the user-config helped for me:

(defun dotspacemacs/user-config ()
  (setq neo-vc-integration nil)
   ...
)

So, if I wanted to make a PR, would it just be a documentation update, or change the default, or both?

[joehillen]

👍 for changing the default
