Hi, I have noticed that there several times while I am editing the background process to do the parse(s) for the suggestions module kicks in, when my cpu was already busy doing something else, e.g. code completion, and the UI lags because of this I have a few ideas. I am not sure that these are issues for this tasklist, or general NB issues 1. when an action is an intensive application, such as the code parse for the suggestion module, pmd etc, and the action is kicked of automatically then could the priority be lowered 2. could the varios suggestion providers affect the scheduling of each other, e.g an option so that only run PMD iff there are no compiler errors. 3. could the suggestion providers detect user activity and stop their current run (sometimes I get several code warnings about the same word that I am typing, each with one morecharacter typed than the last! When the happens the UI is really slow. As a non touch typist I dont usually get 2 words ahead of the UI! (yes I do have a slow machine...) _____ This mailbox protected from junk email by Matador from MailFrontier, Inc. http://info.mailfrontier.com <http://info.mailfrontier.com/>
