Flowcode v10 FC10 become more and more slow

Post by lucibel »

Hello,
1- Why FC10 become more and more slow after few minutes to open component or something else ?
This was also on FC9
what to do ?

2- why FC10 is using ~ 10% of the processor time in background even when it's not used ?

Thx
Seb

Does this happen with particular projects? I have checked on my PC and I am not seeing this behaviour. Can you post an example if it is a particular project (especially a simple project as this will make it easier to debug what the problem is).

Hi
Not depends of the project, gradually, the response time increases.

Your upload is showing Flowcode using 0% when no project loaded, and then 3% when a project is loaded. I think those are reasonable. On my PC, a blank project is showing between 1% and 2%, whereas a complex project varies between 2% and 6%.

The ~10% you are seeing as the total processor time is likely to do with background Windows processes (or processes running under internal or different user accounts) that are unrelated to Flowcode.

In both cases, I am not seeing the CPU usage getting larger over time or the response time of Flowcode increasing.

Technically, there is only one actual instance of Flowcode running. The other entries represent other processes within Flowcode that run in the background. It is probably the same with other apps you are running. For example, Word (on my PC) shows 3 processes when one document is open, and Chrome shows many too.

Thanks, Seb.

I have seen that slow behaviour on large projects when the "variables" tab is showing. Does it still behave slowly when a different tab in Project Explorer is showing?

Also, you said the response time gradually increases. I have not seen that. Are you saying that when the "variables" tab is showing, the response is initially quick but gets slower and slower over time? Or is the slowness just to do with if the "variables" tab is open?

Also, what version of Flowcode are you running? The latest version (v10.1.0.38) should be much more responsive, so I'd be interested to know if you are experiencing the same problems with this new release.
