Topic: Sluggish Performance After Simple Commands

Dieses Thema ist veraltet und kann veraltete oder falsche Informationen enthalten.

This bug happened three times so far, after doing the work-around for the feature I want in this thread. The loading times for each folder no matter how many folders it had inside was about 8 seconds. I am trying to replicate it now with the exact steps. Even VirtualDJ took 8 seconds to close when it usually exits immediately.

I was constantly trying to do the work-around explained here. I was left-clicking folders, expanding and collapsing the folders, that is how I get it to happen. I am going to try to record a video now.

Update: Here is the video. Sorry for the video being long and boring (the video was made for the developers), but it took me about 3 minutes for the bug to occur. Hopefully I included all of the steps to help resolve the bug. It seems to only effect the Tree View and not VirtualDJ's music performance. When I start making circles with my mouse that is when I noticed that the bug reared its ugly head. For the last few demonstrations of the bug I do not make circles with my mouse just in case the mouse causes it. I noticed that the CPU meter freezes as well as the bug is occurring, but it also occurs during the normal 2 second pause when the video first started.

The yellow circle highlights my cursor, the red circle shows when I left-click and the blue circle shows when I right-click.

VirtualDJ 5.0.4

Not sure I completely understand...

Seems you have Recurse on, and give the large main folder a hard beating to try to make it "think for a second" :)

And that folder seems to be a large beast too... If you are constantly clicking that folder on off on off on off , like you do, you might get a little hessitation at some part, as the recurse process is working in the backgroud, just as you try to trigger it again.

Not sure if it qualifies to be called a bug, since you intentionally give the three view a hell of a time ;) hehe..

But will be tested, maybe there are room for some smoother display there

You have so many factors here as DJ-in-Norway points out.

Refreshing of the Cover Flow for every click on a folder - needs to read XML
Updating the File Browser panel with information - needs to read XML
Also, if you have the ID3Tags Enabled, Artist-Title Enabled, Comments Enabled - needs to verify the XML has the appropriate data from the ID3Tags - drive access reading

I think you are taking things to far to the extreme as you are doing things 'extremely' out of the Normal level of use. So the thing I would be extremely happy that you are not Crashing the system and be happy the it is only Sluggish.

It happened too when I clicked on the smaller folders, like the "Scratching" folder which only has about 20 files in it. That is when I knew I was running into issues.

Thing is, that it works so well at the start. Only about 2 seconds for ~6000 files.

I do have all of the ID3 tag reading options enabled.

Please note that when exiting VirtualDJ after this "bug" occurs it takes about 8 seconds instead of the usual 1 second. Maybe there is a memory leak?

I do like to work very fast since I make a living off computers and I am constantly on one. I also tend to be a beta tester. Can you tell? :-) I have done it for numerous companies, video games, applications. That is why I do extreme action sometimes and it explains my attention to detail.
